Prague Castle

On Wednesday in Prague we spent the day visiting the Castle District.


P1120100


There are quite a few bridges crossing the Vltava river in Prague. They look brilliant when they are lined up like in the pic above


P1120275


There are a lot of really cool doors in prague, something we don’t do that well anymore in the western world crunched by credit issues. We have been really impressed with lots of doors. This is a door of an embassy


P1120278


The Prague castle marching band, possibly changing the guard.


P1120285


P1120293


St Vitus’ cathedral, impressive and the most imposing building in the prague castle complex


P1120299


Some crazy little green statue in the crypt of St Vitus


P1120300


Some Saints bones in the Cathedral, the genuine issue


P1120304


Flying pig, a great little sign


P1120305


Kafkas house in the castle area, he wrote a book here, can’t remember which one, actually i don’t know any of them, does that make me an ignorant, is that even a word?


P1120315


Inside the cathedral, sorry to be skeptical but just imagine how many peasants suffered for the glory of this big building


P1120346


Beautiful castle gardens


P1120347
