It is a fact that the New Year is not complete without fireworks. It’s a tradition and people just love to watch fireworks. However, have you ever considered bringing your own fireworks and set it off yourself to welcome and celebrate the New Year? This is exactly why Czech Republic is one of the best New Year’s travel destinations this coming 2009.
Every year, over 250 thousand tourists go to Czech Republic in order to experience a completely unique but very enjoyable New Year. With only over 90 thousand hotel beds in Prague, you can expect a 99 percent no vacancy rate in the city, which is why making reservations early on is a must.
So, just why is Czech Republic very popular among people who want to celebrate New Year? Well, one reason is the atmosphere that Prague and the Czech Republic mountains give to people. The view is simply breathtaking and you will definitely feel very welcome when you visit the city. Another good reason is the cheap booze. For party people out there, you will find that celebrating New Year in Prague is very cheap as you will be able to acquire alcohol at a very cheap price. Also, you will be able to celebrate drunk in the streets while holding a bottle of champagne or any other of your favorite alcoholic beverage.
However, the main reason why Czech Republic is so popular is that it is allowed to buy and bring your own fireworks during the night of the festivities. Unlike in most countries where fireworks are restricted, celebrating New Year in Czech Republic is entirely different as everywhere you go, people will be lighting up a magnificent fireworks display. Everywhere you turn your head you will see fireworks going off.
If you love rock music, then Prague has a lot to offer for rock music lovers from all over the world. Vagon, Rock Café, Palac Akropolis, and Hells Bells play some of the best rock music in the world. And, the best thing about it is that it will be open in New Year.
You can spend the night wandering in and out of the pubs located all across the city. You can discover world famous beer brewed by the Czechs and you can also drink some of the best champagnes in the world. However, when the clock is at the stroke of twelve, make sure that you and your friends head to the Old Town Square or at Charles Bridge. This is where the party really gets wild. You can also try climbing the hills to the Prague Castle or go to the Stalin Statue where the fireworks are launched.
If your idea is to spend a romantic New Year with your significant other, then you can spend the evening in one of the riverboats where you can dine and drink your favorite wine with your loved one.
Also, if the aerial fireworks are not enough, you can pick up hand-held fireworks and set it off along with the locals. However, make sure that you do it safely if you wish to spend the New Year without injuries caused by fireworks.
These are just some of the many reasons why the Czech Republic is considered to be one of the best New Year’s Eve travel destinations this coming 2009. So, if you want to spend the New Year a little differently, you might want to try going to Czech Republic.
