How are bachelor parties in Prague

When friends living in Eastern Europe began to complain about noisy drunk tourists in their cities, American photojournalist Amanda Rivkin decided to dig deeper into this topic. In Prague, Rivkin devoted several weekends to bachelor parties - pre-wedding parties for men from the Netherlands and England. Many of them took place, of course, in strip clubs, which, by the way, are now concentrated in only one area of the city. For many Western Europeans, this is a cheap way to have fun on the weekends. In addition, Prague is one of the main European cities for tourists.
