This self-guided walking tour will take you through the legends of Prague’s Mala Strana, or ‘Little Quarter.’ Whether you believe in ghosts or not, these stories are a fun way to learn about the spirits that may still haunt Prague today!
Golden Lane is one of Prague’s most picturesque streets. Located inside Prague Castle, this fairytale like laneway of pastel coloured homes was built in the castle’s fortifications at the end of the 16th century. To access the Golden Lane, you need to purchase a ticket for Prague Castle. Almost every different circuit ticket includes the Golden Lane and for a good reason, since no visit to Prague castle is complete without visiting Golden Lane.

Prague Castle is in fact, more like a walled, medieval village, rather than one singular castle. Inside these walls are some of Prague’s most famous architectural masterpieces. Combined into compound, this mini-city was named, “Prague Castle”.
