Late afternoon view from the Petřín Lookout Tower in NE direction to the Prague Castle with the St. Vitus Cathedral. This complex of buildings and courtyards is among the largest castles in the World, and it is a major tourist attraction. Since its foundation back in the 9th Century, the Prague Castle has been the place from which many kings, emperors, and presidents - including the President of the Czech Republic - have ruled their countries.
