Prague Castle ( Pražský hrad) is a castle complex in Prague, Czech Republic, built in the 9th century. It is the official office of the President of the Czech Republic. The Castle was a seat of power for the kings of Bohemia, Holy Roman emperors, and presidents of Czechoslovakia. The Bohemian Crown Jewels are kept in a hidden room inside it. According to the Guinness Book of Records, Prague Castle is the most enormous ancient Castle in the world, occupying an area of almost 70,000 square meters (750,000 square feet), at about 570 meters (1,870 feet) in length and an average of about 130 meters (430 feet) wide. The Castle is among Prague's most visited tourist attractions, attracting over 1.8 million visitors annually.

The South Gardens were established gradually on the location of bulwarks beneath Prague Castle. The South Gardens are nearly 500 meters long, and in the summer tourist season, it is possible to enter them from Opyš near the eastern gate or via the Bull Staircase from the Third Courtyard. The west gate between Hradčany Square (Hradčanské náměstí) and the South Gardens is for exit only. The South Gardens comprise three smaller gardens: Paradise Garden - The garden is on the spot of the oldest park in front of the southern wall of the Castle, where a private garden of Archduke Ferdinand was used in the fifties of the 16th century. Similarly, the emperor Rudolf II also had his private garden here with a bath or an aviary. A monumental staircase and an oversized granite bowl became its dominants. On one side, the stone border even changes course to bypass probably one of the oldest trees at Prague Castle - a yew tree with an estimated age of about 400 years. Garden on the Ramparts - The garden's name refers to an old rampart on the Castle's southern side, where later small gardens were founded to be turned into a natural park in the 19th century. The garden has a unified geometric appearance, and it runs beneath most of the southern face wall of Prague Castle. Its central terrace offers a breathtaking view of Prague. At the end of the gardens, the so-called Moravian Bastion, a secluded place where T. G. Masaryk liked to sit. Hartig Garden - The Hartig Garden with a Music Pavilion is the smallest of the gardens on the Castle's southern side, and it was connected to them in the 1960s. The park is closed to the public.

Golden Lane is the street between the Bílá Tower and the Daliborka Tower, lined with colorful houses resembling something from a fairy tale. These houses were built into the Castle's fortifications around the end of the 16th century and were occupied until the Second World War. The current appearance of Golden Lane dates back to 1955, and after a recent extensive renovation, the houses now contain exhibitions about life in the lane over the past 500 years. Franz Kafka lived and worked in house number 22 from 1916 to 1917. There is a story that Golden Lane was inhabited by alchemists during the reign of Emperor Rudolf II. He was a patron of alchemists and astrologers, and like many people of his time, he dreamed of discovering the Philosopher's Stone. In reality, though, the lane owes its name to the fact that goldsmiths used to live there. It was even called Goldsmith Lane (Zlatnická) in the 16th century and was later renamed Golden Lane (Zlatá ulička).
