The Castle complex is enormous, with an area totaling approximately 753,473 square feet. That makes it the largest ancient castle in the world, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.
The complex extends down to the Lesser Quarter, or Mala Strana, where several chateaux and palaces are found. Wallenstein Palace, for one, is home to the Czech Senate and includes 26 houses and six gardens.
Inside the walls, you can find a cathedral, many museums, the office of the Czech president, the Bohemian Crown Jewels and much more.
The complex is expansive and it can take hours to see everything inside.
