I am going to prague from UK, and i was thinking of going via some other countries via the eurorail does anybody know if that is feasible or not.?Visiting Prague?
Yes, it is feasible and can take about 19-24 hours.
You can either go to Paris first and then catch the Paris-Prague express, or you can go via Germany. I think there is a train from London to Frankfurt-am-Main, and then you can catch a train from Frankfurt to Prague.
Yes, it is.

Prague is a beautiful city. From eurorail, go to Vienna. Unfortunately, one of my few true friends was robbed in Budapest, Hungary. He said the people weren't friendly. So I guess I'd suggest not going to Budapest. He said Bratislava is great, Germany is great, too. Warsaw, even. But be aware of pickpocketers, I'm sure that happens everywhere. I hope this helps although I'm originally from Prague and residing in Toronto area.
Yes Prague is definitely worth it. Train tickets in Czech are very cheap so cheapest is to buy a ticket to i.e. Plzen and then buy ticket from there to Prague. Plzen is a nice city too, home of lager beer.
When in Prague if you want to save money don't eat or drink in Prague 1 (center) take metro 4-5 stops to any direction and make price 1/3 they still have quality restaurants most with English menu. Also living in a hotel few metro stops away is a good budget idea. Metro ticket for a week costs 10 bucks and can be bought from any station the shorter tickets naturally less. You can do all your traveling starting from the airport with this pass, saving you a bunch.
As for sights a must and free (do not pay extras) is Prague Castle. Take a tram (free with pass) to above the castle and walk downhill the long walk through the castle. Old town and lovers bridge are also free and nice to sight see (don't buy or eat there). One of my favorites is a newly restored mansion and wine museum just opposite the Zoo (bus station Zoo) its a free place with beautiful garden. National Museum in the center is worth seeing even if you only go to entrance hall not paying in.
Have nice time Prague at that time is one of the top 3 cities in Europe.
