Since the fall of the Iron Curtain, Prague has become one of Europe's (and the world's) most popular tourist destinations. Prague was one of the few European cities relatively untouched during the World Wars, allowing its historic architecture to stay true to form. There are lots of old buildings, many with beautiful murals on them. It contains one of the world's most pristine and varied collections of architecture, from Art Nouveau to Baroque, Renaissance, Cubist, Gothic, Neo-Classical and ultra-modern. Some of the most known sights are:

Town Square
The Astronomical Clock
The Charles Bridge
Lesser Quarter (Malá Strana)
Prague Castle (the largest castle in the world) with its St. Vitus Cathedral
Josefov (the old Jewish quarter) with Old Jewish Cemetery and Altneushul
The Lennon Wall
Vinohrady
Nove Mesto
Wenceslas Square
National Museum
Vyšehrad castle
Petřínská rozhledna, an observation tower on Petřín hill, which is nearly a 1:5 copy of the Eiffel Tower
Žižkov Television Tower with observation deck
The New Jewish Cemetery in Olšany, location of Franz Kafka's grave
The Metronome, a giant, functional metronome that looms over the city
The Dancing House (Fred and Ginger Building)
Places connected to writers living in the city.

It's a safe place if you take some minimal percautions. It's a great place to go because it gets a lot of international visitors so it's very tourist friendly. A lot of foreign companies do business there and a lot of movies are shot there because Prague will let directors close down huge sections of the city to shoot in for a price.

Night life? One of the best in Europe. It's one of the playgrounds of European travellers and locals a like. I would suggest getting a guide though to take you around, do you know anyone in the city? Some hotels will usually hook you up for a fee or complimentary if its a nicer place.
