You're standing at Prague Castle, which the Guinness Book of Records calls the largest ancient castle in the world. Just look at how far it stretches. Nearly six hundred metres long, with courtyards, churches, palaces, towers and gardens. It's less a castle than a small town on the hill above Prague.
