Next, bike through the rural Czech countryside, where castle towns dot the landscape and a local vintner offers us a taste of the season's "new wine." Back in Prague, admire the city's many examples of striking architecture and later, stroll the cobbled streets for a night tour of Prague's burgeoning music scene.
