About Prag

Prags Türme ragen über der Moldau auf: Burg auf dem Hügel, Brücke mit Heiligenstatuen und eine fast unversehrte mittelalterliche Altstadt.

Die Prager Burg, einer der größten Burgkomplexe überhaupt, krönt den Hügel Hradschin, mit dem St.-Veits-Dom in ihrer Mitte und den winzigen Häuschen des Goldenen Gässchens dahinter. Darunter führen die Barockpaläste und Terrassengärten der Kleinseite hinab zur Karlsbrücke, die von Heiligenstatuen gesäumt und schon im Morgengrauen belebt ist.

Top-ranked sights in Prag: Charles Bridge (Karluv Most), Prague Castle (Pražský Hrad), Prague Old Town Square (Staromestské Námestí).
