When you take photos of Prague Castle, remember, the castle is much more of a complex of buildings - not the typical home to royalty in classic fairy tales. But it makes for a fun challenge to photograph.

Then once you visit, there are thousands of details inside and out. Give it a whole day and take it all in.

One of the best views of the castle is from the bridge tower on the Old Town side of Charles Bridge. If you climb the tower there's an outdoor experience at the top that is spine tingling, believe us.

It's not a place for a tripod, but it's still a great photo opportunity.

Your Prague photos, castle and Charles Bridge are musts.

Of course, Prague Castle is a fascinating sight at night.

A picture is worth how many words? Only a thousand??
