I can't understand how I am the first person to recommend the Czech Republic as a travel destination to people. Those of you who have not been don't know what you are missing out on, and those of you who have been should be encouraging others.
It's true that Prague has become incredibly touristy, and quite 'Westernised' in its prices and appearance (countless McDonalds and Dunkin' Donuts), but it is still a magnificant city. The huge buildings and wide, wide streets put Paris to shame and are stunning. But there's so much more to the Czech Republic than just Prague anyway. Once you get further south in the country and head to Czesky Krumlov, you'll see the beautiful countryside, and get to appreciate the national dishes at decent prices.
In the Winter, there are great ski resorts. Spindlerov Mlyn in the north is a great location, very popular with locals and German and Dutch tourists, and cheap to boot. A whole week skiing there (including ski hire, snow board hire, accomodation, food and spending money and travel from Germany not England) cost me no more than £200. But even with cheap airline tickets, you would add only about £100 onto that price.
The country is beautiful and well worth a visit.

My parents went to Prague a few years ago but found it dirty, if I remember correctly.
