With a seize of almost 70 000 m², Prague Castle is the largest castle complex in the world. Construction of the castle started in the 9th century by Prince Bořivoj of the Premyslid Dynasty. For more than 700 years the complex served as the seat of the Bohemian princes and kings. Since 1918 it is the seat of the President of the Czech Republic.
Prague Castle consists of St. Vitus Cathedral, Golden Lane, palaces, gardens, St. George's Basilica and convent, art galleries and museums. It's the most visited tourist attraction in Prague, a visit can take up to half a day.

Your blog is looking great! (I usually visit by Google Reader so it sometimes takes a little while to notice changes, sorry!!)
I love this one. Given how much I LOVE castles, it would make sense to visit especially if it is the largest castle on earth!!
I am enjoying all these pics of Prague. It is a most beautiful city.
