Prague, Czech Republic

The historical account of the name Prague, Czech Republic, is built upon the idea that Prague is the “threshold” of ancient Europe. This theory may be confirmed by the direct translation for the Czech word “prah,” meaning “threshold.” There is also a mystical theory that depicts Prague’s “threshold” as a porthole to new worlds and alternative dimensions.
