[Download] Prague Self-Guided Walks: Prague Castle by Krysti Brice ~ eBook PDF Kindle ePub Free

If you like to venture into a new city on your own, this walking guide will help you do just that. Prague Castle, sitting as it does atop a bluff overlooking the Vltava River, has been the official seat of Bohemian kings and princes, Czechoslovak presidents, and a few Holy Roman Emperors, too, since the 11th century. Prague Castle includes structures dating back to the 9th century, including the infamous window in the Royal Palace that was the site of the so-called Second Defenestration of Prague, an event that is attributed to starting the Thirty-Years' War. In this book you will stroll through these layers of history, right up to the present day, while enjoying majestic architecture, pleasant gardens and beautiful views of Prague.
