<p>This is the interior of the Basilica of St Peter and St Paul - we'd seen online it was stunning, and it certainly did impress us. I had to try not to take too many photos of it as I've never seen an interior quite like it!<br />
<br />
<i>Once an hour, the Vyšehrad district is filled with the sound of bells from the chapter church, which has undergone a number of modifications in the 950 years since it was built. In 1903, its construction was finally completed, giving the church its current neo-Gothic appearance. The interior is richly decorated with Art Nouveau ornamental and figural wall paintings. The church's treasury houses an exhibition of jewellery and rare textiles from the Vyšehrad Chapter.</i> (From Prague.eu)</p>

<p>After a rest in the hotel it started to rain but we had things to do! We took an Uber ride away from the centre of the city to Vyšehrad. The outside was stunning, but it was the interior we really wanted to see!<br />
<br />
<i>Basilica of St. Peter and St. Paul: the main church in Vyšehrad and one of the most important landmarks of Prague<br />
The Church of St. Peter and St. Paul is easily recognized since it has two 58 m tall towers. It stands on top of the Vyšehrad hill and offers beautiful views of Vltava river as well as the Prague Castle complex. The original Romanesque basilica was founded in these places by Duke and later the first King of Bohemia Vratislaus II in the second half of 11th century. <br />
During the reign of Charles IV (14th century), the church got adapted into a magnificent Gothic building, making it the longest church building in Prague at the time with a total length of 110 m. The church survived the Hussite looting of Vyšehrad, at the end of the 16th century a new Renaissance presbytery was completed, and in the 1720s a large Baroque reconstruction took place. The current neo-Gothic appearance of the church dates back to 1885–1903 and its architect was Josef Mocker.</i> (From pragueticketoffice.com)</p>
