Arrival in Prague

Tour of the Prague Castle founded in the 9^th century, enlarged and embellished over 1000 years. The St. Vitus Cathedral is an outstanding masterpiece of Gothic style in Prague, the burial place of Czech kings, Prague archbishops and members of Czech noble families. The Wladislav Hall of the Royal Palace, the ancient place of middle-age tournaments, serves today the purposes of presidential elections since 1935. The St. George‘s Basilica belongs among the oldest structures in the Prague Castle district. St Ludmila and other princes of the Premyslide dynasty found their resting-place in this typically Romanesque basilica. The Golden Lane hides the secrets of royal alchemists trying to produce artificial gold for the king Rudolph II. The famous Kafka‘s house can be also visited in this narrow colourful street.
