The Prague
Castle is the Czech Republic city's most popular tourist
attraction, supposedly the largest ancient castle in the world
with a history stretching back almost 1,200 years. Former
Czech President Vaclav Havel envisioned a plan that would
allow pedestrians to better use the castle and its surroundings,
of particular concern here being the Deer Moat, a dry bed
interrupted by a natural stream. While visitors to the castle
typically traversed the moat via Powder Bridge, Havel's plan
incorporated a pedestrian tunnel
that would enable people to use the Deer Moat.
