My trip to Prague II

A little later Saturday morning, I went up to Prague castle, where, for the first time, I bought actual tickets, to see the actual inside of several of its many buildings.

I first entered the huge, old and very handsome (for a church) St Vitus cathedral.

Hidden in one of the many glass stained windows was a picture of Emperor Palpatine as a young man.

Outside, right next to a side entrance known as the Golden Gate, is a huge painting of the Last Judgement.

There was also a statue of St George killing the dragon.

The oldest part of the castle is St George's Basilica.
