Things to do in Prague Castle
Prague Castle, an ancient symbol of the Czech lands, sits on Castle Hill and proudly overlooks Vltava river, dominating the cityscape of Prague. The castle has been granted numerous honorary titles: not only has it become a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but also the largest castle complex in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Interestingly, this stunning architectural masterpiece doesn’t belong to a single style: the castle buildings represent every style of architecture of the last millennium, from Roman-style buildings from the 10th century through Gothic modifications in the 14th century. Located within Prague Castle are St. Vitus Cathedral, Romanesque Basilica of St. George, a monastery and several palaces, gardens and towers, most of which are open for tourists. The latter sounds rather surprising, given that Prague castle is the official residence of the President of the Czeck Republic, which, however, doesn’t seem to bother numerous crowds of tourists at all. Tours of the castle run rain or shine all year round, so if you happen to take part in one, look around not only for the architecture, as you can spot a famous politician!

Reviews Prague Castle
“Very knowledgeable Guide Helena Neustupna took us around and had so much history to tell us, she was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about all the long and complicated sagas of the past. Time flew by and we were on a bus, walking and finished on a boat. Lunch provided was excellent too!”
“Very good tour and knowledgeable friendly guide. Meeting point could be better explained as just an over head sign easily missed.”
“Dana and the driver were very informative. The lunch was good and the river cruise was also very good well worth the money!”
