The Churches of Prague

Throughout Prague churches and cathedrals dominate the skyline. One of the most visible churches is St. Vitus Cathedral which is located in the Prague Castle complex.

I found visiting St. Vitus Cathedral to be overwhelming. After all, it took nearly six centuries to complete building the Gothic masterpiece.

St. Vitus is the largest temple in Prague and houses the royal tombs of Czech kings and queens as well as patron saints.

Also pictured in the last two photographs are St. George's Basilica and St. Nicholas Church at Malostranske Namesti, respectively.
