Best Castle in Czech

N	Nastja Prodanic on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The entrance to the complex of the castle is free but you must pass the security check. Drones are not allowed as well as metal things. Security check is basically same here as in the all other museums. This is a must see place in the Prague but I recommend you to come early at the morning for example around 8 AM. Everything that you can visit with a ticket starts working from nine or 10 AM so you have enough time to see the castle but also to buy a ticket and to visit churches and exhibitions when they are not overcrowded. At 12 (noon) is the most crowded and there are a lot of tourist groups, that’s why I advise you either to come early in the morning or to come late at night but at night you will not be able to visit churches and exhibitions.
S	Sonika Prakash on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's one of the most beautiful castles in the world. Ancient looking gothic architecture and you will love every single thing about the place. There is a golden lane where you can see the living theme of ancient time. And there is a little cafe at the end.
L	Laura Stephens on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Steep walk, beware of Google maps taking you through a garden to get there (it's a beautiful garden, but a cost of 50czk per person and the walk is incredibly steep, there are benches though) the views from the castle are just stunning. the castle itself is beautiful, lots to see, plenty to keep you occupied for a morning, if going to see the changing of the guard, get there early and try to get a spot on the outside of the gates for the best view.
R	Rico Wallich on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is definitely a location to visit while you are in town. If you've managed to "climb" all the stairs to the castle, the reward is a perfect view over Prague. There are quite a few perfectly preserved buildings in the area connected to the castle and on the way up there. The cathedral on the castle grounds is just a master piece of old craftsmanship inside and outside!
M	Madhushi Weerasinghe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful ancient castle with great architecture. You can hire a local guide if you are interested to know about the historical background. Also, there are many free tour guides in Prague whom you can book online. The Prague Castle circuit ticket also allows you to visit the Charles Bridge Museum free of charge. However, All visitors are not allowed to bring large baggage and there is a security checkpoint at the entrance.
D	Denis Duranovic on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Definitely worth a walk up a hill ?. Another one of those place that is much better out of the season of early in the day to avoid crowds. Exceptional architectural marvel the provides a “ old world “ almost fairytale like feel to the place . Also very nice view points, worth exploring, around the castle overlooking the city of Prague. Only downsides are that you have to pay extra to gain access to some parts of the complex.
A	Abhiram Jogadenu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I recommend going early in the morning (before 8am) or in the evening (after 5pm). During these hours, the crowd is usually low, and you can enjoy and absorb more of the castle's beauty. I definitely recommend to go to the top of the lookout tower, as it provides a spectacular view of the entire city.
D	D Tailor on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely amazing venue. Superior views across Prague. I was very impressed with the food service. I was lucky enough to be invited to a special dinner. I was particularly impressed that the staff were so attentive that before my drink had finished I was presented with a drink and they remembered what I was drinking. Absolutely phenomenal. The main lady running the service was a pleasure speaking with and clearly understood how to make guests feel special. Very impressive, it's rare that I am blown away. The venue is fantastic, the balcony for drinks reception is amazing. The food was truly amazing, and the service was spectacular.
