A beautiful place. Enjoy the way to reach the castle. I recommend star in the Carlos bridge, walk around 30 minutes, maybe could be hard, but, when you reach the peak. The castle will be phenomenal. Then in the castle, enjoy each moment, each view, all that you can imagine. Take photos, videos, make reel, storys. Enjoying. Be prepared to make a hiking (15 min to reach the peak).
Spectacular and well worth the walk over the river and up the hill. Such an incredible and rich history - and apparently the largest ancient castle in the world. As an added bonus, access to most things was free when we visited on Christmas Eve.
Prague Castle is a breathtaking historical marvel that transports you to a bygone era. The architecture, the views, and the rich history make it a must-visit destination. The intricate details of St. Vitus Cathedral and the stunning Golden Lane are truly awe-inspiring. The castle grounds offer panoramic views of Prague, creating a magical experience. The knowledgeable guides enhance the visit with fascinating stories. A must-see for anyone in Prague, it’s a living testament to the city’s cultural and architectural legacy.
One of the main attraction in Prague. Very nicely maintained. A Entry ticket is required to visit different parts of the castel. Main attraction is the Cathedral. Also keep a look out for hidden gems like the post office museum.
What a fortress. Beautiful architecture, a staple of human achievement, as most of the Czech Republic is. If you're in Prague, Czech Republic, the Prague Castle is a must-see. It's Gothic and full of history and art. Beautiful churches and cathedral and property. Very clean, plenty to learn.
Note - You must purchase a photo license at the ticket booth if you have a camera that isn't your phone. It's not much, but if you're a photographer then it's a must.
What a great place to visit and learn about Czech history!! Bonus, you get an awesome view of the city!!! Definitely worth the trouble!!! My visit was middle of January and the queue was really small. For the price of 250 ck you get to see the old royal palace, the St. Vitus Cathedral, St. George's Basilica and the Golden Lane and in my opinion is enough!! Enjoy!!! The only bad thing is that the Royal garden was closed during winter so if you want to see it , then you should visit during summer time.
Prague Castle, a historical gem, commands attention with its grandeur and rich heritage. The complex seamlessly blends architectural styles, showcasing centuries of Czech history. St. Vitus Cathedral stands as a breathtaking centerpiece. The Golden Lane offers a charming stroll through medieval times. While the crowds can be overwhelming, the panoramic views of Prague are unparalleled. The well-preserved interiors and captivating stories make this castle a cultural treasure. Despite the occasional crowds, Prague Castle is an essential stop for anyone enchanted by history and architectural splendor.
Beautiful and well worth the time going with a guide. The castle is huge and the cathedral is absolutely gorgeous inside. Can be very crowded, which is a given, but that's the only negative. It's surreal the first time you visit.
