The guide waits at the rim of Prague Castle as morning light sharpens the edges of red roofs below. Children tug at parents’ sleeves, eyes on spires and the sweeping Vltava river that dares you to cross its storied bridges. For 2.5 hours the city center becomes a playground: castle courtyards to cobbled alleyways, statues that seem to whisper, and an old bridge lined with faces that invite questions.
