The castle makes a strong impression: a lot of cold stone, gloomy stairs and shadows, a strange asymmetry, deliberately frightening masks-faces, dusty, vomiting drains-gargoyles and, at the same time, stained glass windows, lace domes, smalt on facades, mosaic slate roofs — medieval gloom and elegance, everything is famously mixed, sometimes unusual and even evokes Take it aback. Nevertheless, the castle excited, delighted and made the strongest impressions in Prague, although I saw a lot of things there. Well, the weather was also right — there was a terrible downpour, everything was thundering, and then the sun… I was puzzled by the device for setting candles: you throw a coin and electronically turn on the candle-diode - nothing sacred.

The Old Prague Castle is a classic of Gothic architecture and classicism. Every place, temple, basilica, palace, is beautiful. It should be remembered that entrance to many places inside the City is paid separately, in particular, to Zolotaya Street, St. George Monastery, etc. If you are lucky, you can get to the guard of honor change at the Presidential Palace (like at 13:00). And so - plan a full day for this historical miracle.
