Meeting the Essence of Gothic in Prague

The place I was most looking forward to visiting and spent the longest time at during my trip to Prague Castle was St. Vitus Cathedral. Even before stepping inside, the cathedral's breathtaking beauty left me in awe. Its pointed spires, intricate sculptures, and stained glass decorations—all hallmarks of Gothic architecture—made it feel like more than just a place of worship; it was a masterpiece of architectural art. ✔️ Review The cathedral is far more grand and imposing than it appears in photos. The dark, somber tones of the stone structure create an antique and mysterious atmosphere. Looking up at the spire, which seems to pierce the sky, you can't help but gasp in amazement. Once inside, it's like entering a completely different world. The colorful stained glass windows, especially the one designed by Alfons Mucha, are true works of art. Sunlight streaming through the stained glass casts vibrant shadows on the cathedral's floor and pillars, and simply walking along these beams of light brings a sense of calm. ✔️ Visiting Tips • Visit early in the morning for a quieter experience. • The stained glass windows are most stunning during sunny hours (morning to around noon). • Admission to Prague Castle is not free. • Take your time to walk around and admire the stained glass windows. Mucha's stained glass is located midway on the left side.
