The Meier's German Adventure

This was our next destination - the Prague Castle. We stopped by the river for a quick break and to cool off under the shade of some trees that line the river Vlatava since it was already well into the 80s. We entered the castle through the gate that is under the tower on the far right of the picture. The history of the castle begins back in the 9th century. The buildings enclosed by the castle walls include a palace, three churches and a monastery. Since 1918, it has been the seat of the president of the Republic.
