Alchemy and Mysteries of Prague Castle Walking Tour
Take a journey from the cobbled streets of the Old Town, across the river through the Castle District, where you will visit sites such as the ancient Strahov Monastery, majestic Loreto and Cernin Palace.
Walk the magical winding streets of the "New World" as night descends upon the city and hear legends from the reigns of Good King Wenceslas and Charles IV.
Hear how scientists and magicians were attracted to Bohemia during the unique reign of Rudolf II and how alchemy, magic and astronomy have played an important part in the local history.
Enjoy the castle grounds and famous "Golden Lane" as you avoid the daytime crowds and distractions: and, as night falls, enjoy the spectacular views the city has to offer from the largest castle complex in the world.
