My first visit in '91 was very special, my hosts providing personal touches like a basket of Easter eggs. I've enjoyed Krakow because it is also filled with beautiful architecture, but there also seems to be space. There are a lot of young and friendly people, you can still stumble into a 'milk bar' for a ton of delicious, local food for a coupla bucks, and the beer is great. The salt mine is expansive, but just a kind of silly thing you could take the kids to.

Cheap international flights, lots of British bars, stag parties, numerous hostels (I think HostelWorld lists something like 60 now), cheap food and beer -- all the qualities Prague has yet it's "undiscovered."
