Built in the 9th century, it is the largest coherent castle complex in the world.
To avoid crowds and enjoy the picturesque views of Prague try visiting it early in the morning.
Wallenstein Garden, Vrtba Garden, Hartig Garden or Ledeburg Palace Garden... All of these picturesque viewpoints and gardens belong to the Prague Castle complex. Some of them are completely free of charge to visit. Entrance to others is included in the Prague Castle tour ticket. Do not sleep on those as they are not well known amongst tourists and are true hidden gems!
