    so criminal organizations are now into running ATMs rather than robbing them...makes sense

    Makes me think if 20-30 years ago a minister would've been this eager to do such changes and basically want to be featured in a video about it. Today a KZread video can affect the way tourists see a country, which has an impact on its economy, and the politicians know this.

    Haha I fell for this tourist trap when we made a schooltrip to Prague. After I told them I didn't want it anymore when I found out it was only CBD they became really mad and told me to fuck off.

    All of Prague is overrated. I went in March and I have never been as bored on a holiday as I was there. Tourist traps, scammers, huge amounts of tourists and every street is lined with tacky gift shops. Is it pretty, sure, but that’s also about it - it’s just pretty.

    Sad but it's the same everywhere. If you come to Brussels and go to eat, avoid "la rue des Bouchers / Beenhouwersstraat", at best you'll leave with your wallet empty, but in addition with salmonellosis or turista. There are a lot of amazing restaurants in Brussels, but not there. And Belgium is already VERY EXPENSIVE, therefore, avoid these "restaurants" at all costs.

    I’ve been in Prague twice. If you walk past like you’re a local (when really you’re a tourist), they seem to not bother you, and I haven’t been bothered once by doing this. I get by on a limited mix of Czech and English. Another tourist trap is the prices to see the exhibitions at Prague Castle (Hradschin). I paid for it once just to see what all the hype was about, and it was the worst 500Kč I’d ever spent.

    I'm Gen Z and even I'm confused by those guys refusing to search, like, "paternoster lifts in prague". I guess it's 'cause I'm part of the older half, not the younger half...
