Prague Castle

Fabulous castle to visit but be aware of the steep climb to get into it. The buildings are stunning and very well preserved and there are lots of bars, coffee shops, restaurants and free toilets throughout the complex. The castle is huge and if you arrive at the right time you can see the changing of the guard. One negative is the modern branded signs on the buildings like Starbucks (see photos).

Such an amazing castle ever! I recommend you all to buy tickets in advance. The area around castle has opened since early morning, and closed in the evening. However, there are so many spots inside the area that open only certain times and tickets are needed. Please do the research in advance, get the tickets and plan very well. Beautiful and worth the experience.

Prague Castle is huge, with a lot to see, but it’s definitely on the expensive side. The different buildings, courtyards, and St. Vitus Cathedral are impressive, but you have to pay extra for most areas. I couldn't believe the dungeon—it had a really eerie atmosphere and felt more authentic than some of the other sections. Golden Lane was interesting but felt a bit too touristy, and the crowds can be overwhelming, especially mid-day. The buildings don't hold a lot of people, so you do have to wait if you want to go into each one to see. Overall, it’s worth visiting, but be prepared for high prices and crowds.

Prague Castle is an absolute must-see when visiting Prague! The stunning architecture, rich history, and breathtaking views of the city make it unforgettable. The castle grounds are vast, so wear comfortable shoes and take your time exploring. Don’t miss the panoramic views from the South Gardens—they’re spectacular! Highly recommend visiting early to avoid crowds.

Good but signage wasn’t brilliant. Zone V (5) was best experience to see original little houses. Palace is fine, but translation boards aren’t written but English speakers so became a little wearisome to read.. cathedral is impressive, but would recommend getting a guide to understand what is happening around you!

What a beautiful building and totally worth the money to get into! The cathedral is spectacular and extra special at Christmas time too. The Golden Lane is well worth going down. It was busy but not overly so. The changing of the guard was very interesting and worth waiting for.

Visiting Prague Castle was truly an unforgettable experience! I had the chance to go twice—once in the morning and once at night—and each visit offered a completely unique perspective. During the morning, the castle was bathed in natural light, highlighting every intricate detail of its stunning architecture. The walk up the two sides of stairs was a bit long, but it was absolutely worth it as I admired the panoramic views and explored the historical landmarks, like St. Vitus Cathedral and the charming courtyards. At night, the castle transformed into something magical. The illuminated walls and towers created an enchanting atmosphere, making it feel like I had stepped into a fairy tale. Strolling through the grounds under the soft glow of the lights was mesmerizing. Whether in daylight or under the stars, Prague Castle is truly a masterpiece and a must-visit for anyone traveling to this beautiful city.

Prague Castle is an absolute must-visit, offering breathtaking views, stunning architecture, and a deep sense of history. Wandering through its vast grounds, you’ll discover the majestic St. Vitus Cathedral, charming courtyards, and the picturesque Golden Lane. The mix of Gothic, Romanesque, and Baroque styles makes every corner visually captivating. Whether you’re exploring the Old Royal Palace or enjoying the serene gardens, the atmosphere is truly magical. It’s a place where history comes to life, making it an unforgettable highlight of any trip to Prague!
