St. Vitus Cathedral, one of the most visited Prague Castle attractions, will be returned to the state. This is very good news for travellers.
The Prague Castle Administration have announced that the entrance to the cathedral will be free of charge again.

I'll never forget staring out over the city, soaking up the magnificent view in silence. I'll also never forget the silence being broken by an American family of four. The father shouting, "hey everybody! Look! You can see the American Embassy from here!!" Of all the things to point at... So, if you have tacky tourist tendencies, keep them to yourself and discuss them when you're back at the Holiday Inn. Enjoy the view.
Castle? Look up.
Even when crowded with visitors, notably around Karlova street and the Charles Bridge connecting the old town to the little quarter, it is surprising how little detours from the main drag take you into relatively quiet and delightful squares and alleys.
