Been to Prague, and to Bratislava, enjoyed both cities.
You are a lucky character for having seen them. Lovely people, and the beer.....
I’ve never been to Prague, but did visit Bratislava when it was still under Communist rule. It seemed pretty drab then—no doubt much better now. I got into a conversation with an Austrian woman who was also there as a tourist—she said it reminded her of the Soviet occupation zone in Vienna (before 1955)—nobody fixed anything.
Prague is utterly amazing. Bratislava is a beautiful city in its own right. I found going out into the country to some of those little towns felt as if I had gone back in time. Bardio Kupele, Kosice, Levoca....some have been untouched since the Middle Ages. They are living museums. It would be a crying shame if any modern war or conflict affected them in any way.
