Why you should visit it
Vyšehrad - meaning a "High Castle", describes this spot quite well as it was built on rocks above the river. Although the view of the city from the top is excellent, it gets only little attention from tourists. Next to the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul, you will find a cemetery where many famous Czech people are buried.
Special tip
Take a walk on the remains of this former fortress and enjoy the view.
