district of the Czech Republic
Prague-West district is a part of Central Bohemia, immediately west of Prague.
Understand
editThe area consists of small villages, towns and suburbs which are mostly quite naturally connected to the main Prague city. While most of the towns provide the basic services and have history of their own, few of them have any mentionable sights.
On the other hand, various places in the area provide for good relaxation, such as cycling tracks or small local breweries.
