“Awesome but commercial”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012 NEW

You now have to stand in line and buy a ticket to visit the Hradcany complex (where St. Vitus is located). You need a ticket even for Zlatá Ulicka! More

“Beautiful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012 NEW

Amazing to look at from Charles Bridge and the Castle but also spectacular inside. Worth the ticket to wander around the whole of the inside. Can't believe it took almost 3 centuries to complete!! Well worth a visit. More
