10 Reasons You Should Study Abroad in Prague

&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">This semester I was given the opportunity to study abroad in the beautiful city of Prague&period; I have loved my time so far in the city and have some wonderful reasons why you should experience the city for yourself&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">1&period; <strong>Absolutely Stunning <&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">One of the best aspects of living in Prague is how absolutely beautiful it is&period; No picture of Prague can do the city justice&period; Prague looks like something out of a storybook with its historic architecture and cobblestone streets&period; Prague was even voted the world’s most beautiful city this year and for good reason&excl;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">2&period; <strong>Super Cheap<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">One of the best aspects of studying in Prague is how cheap everything in the city is&period; For example I went to dinner&comma; got a salad&comma; side&comma; and dessert and only ended up spending &dollar;15 on my meal&excl; It is super easy to save money while studying in Prague while still being able to have an amazing experience&period; Saving money in Prague also makes your experience abroad much more manageable when it comes to getting the most out of the city and traveling to other places&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">3&period; <strong>Central Location<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Prague is located smack dab in the center of Europe&comma; making it pretty easy to get everywhere in Europe&period; The airport is super manageable and there are plenty of direct flights to destination locations all over Europe&period; In addition&comma; there are many cool places that are only a bus or train ride away from Prague&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph"> <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<figure class&equals;"wp-block-image size-full"><img src&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;tulanemagazine&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;prague-beer-square-view-1024x683&period;jpg&period;webp" alt&equals;"" class&equals;"wp-image-10684"&sol;><figcaption><em>Source&colon; Prague Morning<&sol;em><&sol;figcaption><&sol;figure>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading"><strong>4&period; Beer Beer Beer&excl;<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">The Czech Republic is the country with the highest annual consumption rate of beer in the entire world&period; While this might seem like a mistake&comma; after spending time in Prague you’ll discover the integral role in which beer plays in Czech culture&period; What could be better than studying somewhere where beer is so beloved&quest;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">5&period; <strong>Great Night Life<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Prague has amazing nightlife and is a super fun place to study abroad&excl; Not only does Prague have great clubs but also super cool bars all over the city&period; The clubs and bars are also easy to get into and cheap&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">6&period; <strong>Seasons<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Another aspect that I have loved about studying abroad in Prague is seeing the city throughout the seasons&period; When I arrived in Prague it was still summery and warm and I watched as the leaves changed and started to fall on the streets of Prague&period; Prague has relatively mild weather&comma; with temperatures normally staying around the 40s or 50s in the fall&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<figure class&equals;"wp-block-image"><img src&equals;"https&colon;&sol;&sol;lh3&period;googleusercontent&period;com&sol;egW9uLW4HvPM&lowbar;EGoq1gFdVV82-nO6NloJMVzmqhb&lowbar;w5NApLeEU-xgHgFnmnt29msd7ggPX1k7jzh5DcB-U8hQzBwpErNxZYGB3lflZIO9My6md&lowbar;QNiBOVOpt2uF7DVEooMybHYYa" alt&equals;""&sol;><figcaption><em>Source&colon;

Prague has all the benefits of a big city while maintaining a wonderful neighborhood charm&period; Prague is relatively small geographically making everything easy to get to and making the city very walkable&period; When walking around Prague you will see plenty of families with young children&comma; making the city feel very homey&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">8&period; <strong>Great Public Transportation <&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Prague is also super easy to get around due to its wonderful public transportation system&period; The tram and metro are very straightforward and easy to navigate&period; Wherever you want to get to in Prague&comma; there’s an easy way via public transportation&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">9&period;<strong> Safe City<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">Traveling from home to a new European city can be a scary experience&comma; but one thing that can make the transition easier is knowing that you’re going to be studying abroad somewhere safe&period; Prague is a relatively safe city with a low crime rate&period; In most areas it is safe to walk alone at night and cat-calling is an uncommon experience&period;&nbsp&semi;<&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h2 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">10&period;<strong> Unique Study Abroad Experience<&sol;strong><&sol;h2>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p class&equals;"wp-block-paragraph">One thing I can guarantee if you study abroad in Prague is that you are going to have a remarkably unique experience&period;
