Budapest, listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, is probably the most beautiful city over the Danube River and it is famous for many historical monuments and landmarks.

Prague lies on the shores of the Vltava River.Founded at the end of the IX century, the four independent cities that previously formed Prague, merged in a single city in 1784. The four cities are Hradcany (the Castle, to the west of the Vltava), Malá Strana (the lower district to the south of the Castle), Staré Mesto (the Old City, on the Eastern shore opposite to the Castle) and Nové Mesto (the New City to the southeast). The Jewish district Josefov and the Vyšehrads district were annexed in the second half of the XIX century.
Since 1992, the historic centre of Prague has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
