Can you imagine a castle with an area as big as seven (7) football fields? Prague Castle is said to be the biggest
castle in the world, with a history dating back to the mid-ninth (9th) century. I thought The Old Town Square
was already old, but Prague Castle beats it by a century :)..

Gate of Giants.
(what would you do if these statues come to life? haha)

Matthias Gate (the inscription is a listing of the Emperor’s titles).

Prague Castle (Third Courtyard).
It was eerie… ;))

Gothic Cathedral of St. Vitus (it took nearly six centuries to build this!)
The large Rose Window above the entrance shows biblical scenes.
