Advantages: Good view of the city centre across the river Disadvantages: NA
...a complex with the main castle, courtyard and a few churches. It dated back to the 9th century and has been the historical and political centre for the city and country for years. We first visited the St Vitus Catheral.It is one of the landmarks of Prague and you can see its spires from across the river. It was built in 1344 but more work or decoration was added to it during the course of history. Therefore, inside the church, you can see a variety ... ...of Czech patron saint St Wenceslas. We walked passed the St Vitus Cathedral and reached the Basilica of St George. It is older than the St Vitus Cathedral and it’s considered one of the best preserved Romanesque churches in Prague. We then headed to the Golden Lane which takes its name from the alchemists who were believed to be able to make gold. The street is full of many small colourful houses and the famous Czech author Franz Kafka lived at number ...

Advantages: Great view Disadvantages: Waste of money
As some of you will know from my other review I visited Prague recently. I didn't include PragueCastle in that review because it seemed like the review was already really long but as it is one of the main attractions.
This review is going to be really mixed because there is so much to Praguecastle. It's really like going to a little village because there is so much to the castle and the area around it and if you want to see it all then you'll need to spend the entire day there.
-Tickets-
I bought a Prague Card and got the short tour free on that but if you don't have a prague card the prices are:
Short Tour- 250 crowns (Ł9.22)
Long Tour-350 Crowns (Ł12.90)
You can also pay to get into individual attractions and discounts are available, as well as family tickets.
(Please not that the currency in Prague is changing so ...

Advantages: Beautiful and magnificent architecture Disadvantages: Golden Lane. Oh yeah and don't forget the stairs.
My sister and I decided that we should see PragueCastle. Although my sister had already been there, she felt it justified a second visit. And of course I had never been to Prague before, so I figured this was one of the main places to visit even if you don't get much else in.
Was I disappointed? No. It is beautiful and there really is a lot to see. Entry to the grounds is free, so you can just go and look at the architecture and the gardens if you like. There-in lies a sumptuous feast for the eyes. If you like beautiful architecture as much as I do, you will enjoy just walking around and looking at the buildings.
To actually get into the various buildings, on the other hand, you have to pay. The price varies depending on just how much you want to see. Please forgive me if the prices are slightly wrong, as I am just going on memory ...

Advantages: Lots of history Disadvantages: Disparate group of buildings with no focus
How do you like your castles? Do you go for grey, forbidding, lurking hulks with curtain walls and implicit violence? Or something more refined like a French chateau, more curlicues than crenellations? Do you like to poke about in weed-grow ruins or do you prefer your castles with a roof and coats-of-armour furnishings? What about size ? a small tower to guard a pass, or a full-scale fortress covering a large area and a lot of history? The point I?m making is that ?castle? encompasses a wide variety of structures and a range of purposes. So on my first visit to Pra?ský Hrad, PragueCastle, I was prepared for any or all of those things, but what I found didn?t really fit even this flexible definition. In fact, I?ve been trying to find a better word than castle to describe the complex (apart from ?surprise?, obviously). The best I ...
