Krivoklat (Czech Republic)





Krivoklat (pronounced Kzhee-vo-klat) was once owned by Czech kings (what wasn't in this region?), but lost its prominence after being turned into a "harsh" prison castle. Leaving Prague, it's on the way to Karlovy Vary, about 45 minutes into the trip. We like to take American visitors here, as (along with Karlstejn) it's one of the best "fairy tale castles" in the area, built on a mountaintop and overlooking the valley.

Wow! I haven't see castle but this one is cool. I hope I can go there and see it for myself.
The castle is marvelous! I'd like to visit it and take a vacation with my family. I'm sure we're gonna visit this castle.
The pictures are wonderful. It captured the amazing castle of Czechoslovakia.
