Day 6 - Prague

Day 6 - Prague


Today we took a 6 hour guided walking tour of Historical Prague. The guided tour included a boat ride on the Vltava river, tram ride to Prague castle and lunch. It cost 1200 Kc (Czech Crowns) which is about $70.



The tour took us to the National Museum, which has a natural science collection. We also saw Charles bridge, the Jewish Quarter, Prague Castle and the Astronomical Clock.



Prague castle is the largest fortified castle in the world and the Cathedral on the castle grounds is stunning.






Every hour on the hour the changing of the guards occurs. 3 guards march to the guard gate and two of the guards replace the guards currently on duty.
