Inside St Vitus Cathedral

The St Vitus Cathedral stands inside the courtyard of the Prague Castle. Anyone can enter St Vitus Cathedral without a charge, but to stroll around the alter, its chapels and the crypt costs money (and if you want to take pictures you are charged 30Kc extra). Yesterday NanJan and I spent the money and here are some of the shots, including the Mucha window below.
