Prague, Czech Republic: A Treasury of Historic Architecture
🏰 Prague Castle Complex ✨The hilltop complex includes the magnificent St. Vitus Cathedral, the Royal Palace, two side palaces, and the charming Golden Lane. A combined ticket allows entry over two days (single visit per site). ✨The 700-year-old cathedral is an absolute must-see!🍂 🏛 Lobkowicz Palace 🌸Once home to Czechia's last royal family, this palace now showcases family heirlooms, aristocratic portraits, and historical artifacts. Don't miss Lobkowicz Palace Café—great views, delicious food, and reasonable prices! 📚 Strahov Library A 15-minute walk east of the castle, this hidden gem (€7 entry) houses centuries-old manuscripts and rare books. Small but fascinating!🍂 🦖 National Museum (History & Natural Science) 3-hour visit—ideal for history and nature lovers (heavy focus on WWI & WWII).🍂 🌸Skip if short on time. 🍽 Dining in Prague ☘️More expensive than Budapest, but Hungarian cuisine is tastier. ☘️Czech food = meat-heavy, salty, and veggie-scarce. Even salads are rare (and pricey!). Savior Spot: A restaurant near Old Town Square offering veggies, tofu, and meat by weight (~20 CAD for 500g, including broth). 🌳Budget Tip: Turkish kebab shops! 🌳Their tender veal plates (15 CAD, feeds two) are juicy and flavorful—much better than dry beef kebabs elsewhere. #PragueCastle #CzechRepublic#ExplorePrague #TravelSlow
