Prague Castle is a cluster of buildings with a double-spire cathedral that surrounds a central square, high atop and overlooking the city and the Vltava River. St. Vitus Cathedral is spectacular, some 700 years old with an interior that rivals the best in Europe. Impressive carvings, stained glass and paintings make this a very special hallowed ground. The changing of the guard was interesting, while musicians played from open windows. Panoramic view of the city, albeit rain and fog on our visit in September. Hint: follow behind the marching guard for a better central view through the opened gates.
A must go place when you in Prague!
You may need to spend over 4-5 hours to experience all the spot.
The castle is only part of the experience, you will also have chance to take a look the Gold Lane, and cathedral.
The view is very beautiful, really “THE PRAGUE”.
There will be lots of steps, remember to wear a comfortable shops.

The entrance to the castle and parks are free. We got tickets to enter 5 buildings. Experience was very nice. My favorite part was Artistic Street, where artists sell handmade things. The medieval room upstairs was amazing. Great experience
The castle looks impressive from down below. To get up you have to climb a lot of stairs! Not recommend if it’s a hot summer day. At the top you find a overprices starbucks and the museum shop. There is no way to fill up your water bottle as there is no fountain This was really disappointing. But the castle is beautiful. The tickets are fairly prices considering you can visit different buildings. The view from the top is also great.
Most of the palace is actually a free to walk around area. You need to pay if you want to visit the museum parts or a small street, or the toilet. The signs are very distinguishable so you need not worry. The front yard of the castle has a narrow garden with a great view towards Charles Bridge. Exploring the small streets to get to the castle was in my opinion just as nice, so take your time and walk around.
