The political center of the Czech Republic - Prague Castle.

Prague, the "City of a Hundred Spires", is a city full of medieval charm and cultural heritage, and the entire city is listed as a World Cultural Heritage site. Prague Castle is one of the largest ancient castles in the world, including historical buildings such as St. Vitus Cathedral, the Old Royal Palace, and St. George's Church. The castle was once the Czech royal palace, built in the 7th century AD, originally the Bohemian Palace. Looking from a distance, the beige buildings, the gray churches, the light green bell towers, and the white spires are magnificent. Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance-style buildings from various historical periods are reflected in each other. The most famous are the Renaissance Coronation Hall, Queen Anna's Entertainment Hall, and the Spanish Hall. The Coronation Hall was built from 1487 to 1500. The Bohemian king once held a coronation ceremony here. Now the election ceremony of the Czech president is held here. For a long time, Prague Castle was the political center of the Czech Republic. It is still the location of the president and national institutions, so it is also called the Presidential Palace. The Spanish Hall is in the north building of the castle, decorated with gold and jade, and is a place for grand banquets and the president to receive VIPs.
