Know Before You Go

Along with Prague Castle, visit the two other parts of Prague's historical centre on the left bank, the Castle District and the Lesser Town. Since this is a walking tour and the left bank is very hilly, we will start at the highest point, Strahov Monastery, and make our way to the Castle further down.
