Children are successfully sent to school, and somewhere in the back of their minds, thoughts about Christmas begin to emerge from childhood. Probably everyone wants to celebrate the New Year somehow in a special way. For example, dressed up in ancient costumes, arrange a feast in a medieval castle, inhaling the aromas of a wild boar or a calf roasting in a huge blazing fireplace.
If you are salivating, then the question is “ where to celebrate the New Year» has already been resolved - the Czech Republic is the most popular country in Europe for the New Year holidays. Almost all travel agencies offer a variety of tours to Prague for the New Year - The beauty of medieval cities, holiday festivals, bright and noisy fairs, Christmas discounts - all this creates all the conditions to attract tourists from all over the continent. Do not be embarrassed by the fact that most of those around you will speak Russian - the vast majority of those who come to celebrate the New Year in the Czech Republic are from the countries of the former Soviet Union.
Those who do not like fuss will appreciate the charm of small towns - go to "gingerbread" Karlovy Vary, where even in the winter cold in the open air you can swim and heal in thermal springs. And you can celebrate Christmas in Hundred Towers Prague - the pre-holiday fuss begins here already on December 5th. According to the legends these days St. Mikulas (St. Nicholas in Czech) goes to houses where there are small children. These days, mummers in the image of Mikulas, the Bishop, the Angel and the Devil walk the streets and ask the children if they behaved well this year? The one who behaved well receives sweets from Mikulas.
Before Christmas, it transforms into a magical city - a huge live spruce grown in the mountains of the Czech Republic is placed on the Old Town Square, the squares are decorated, Christmas fairs begin.

By eleven o'clock, residents leave their homes and raise glasses with champagne sparkling in the light of night fireworks. At this time, the Old Town Square is no longer overcrowded, so if you have agreed to meet with friends, you need to do this in advance. A multilingual crowd is buzzing around with animation - Greeks, French, Poles, Americans, Germans, Italians, but this does not bother anyone, and it is difficult to make out something in such noise - everyone understands each other perfectly without words. The famous Prague Astronomical Clock, made in 1410, counts the last seconds of the outgoing year.
Finally, the long-awaited moment comes - thousands of celebrating under the chiming clock pour champagne and wish each other a happy new year. And here comes the climax - thousands of tourists hear the chiming clock, which herald the coming of the new year. Champagne is opened, and people begin to congratulate each other on the holiday.
December 31, New Year's Eve in the Czech Republic, All bars, restaurants, discos and entertainment centers are open until the morning, live music is played everywhere. On the Charles Bridge, people line up to touch one of the statues and make a wish that will certainly come true.
