What To Expect

Prague Castle

Forget the fairy-tale name—this isn’t Cinderella’s palace. Prague Castle is the world’s largest castle complex, packed with royal halls, Gothic towers, secret courtyards, and panoramic gardens. We’ll enter through a lesser-known gate for a calmer, more authentic start to your visit.
