When I arrived in Prague Old Town, the first thing I saw was the gunpowder tower. It was a relatively iconic attraction and my first attraction in Prague Old Town. Transportation: Prague's old town is not really big, the attractions are relatively concentrated, so I live near the old town, basically walk to various attractions. Walking in through the gunpowder tower is the old city square, astronomical clock and other famous attractions ~ Czech 🇨🇿 do not recognize the Chinese driver's license, so you can't rent a car here. You must have an international driver's license to play: it is recommended to play with the attractions in the old city. Personally, I don't think it is necessary to go into the inside of the gunpowder tower to see, it is not meaningful to climb, in fact, not very high... It is better to go to the most beautiful Starbucks to check in to see the panoramic view of Prague. So take a look to recommend the reason: the gunpowder tower is a gothic building, dark, as if smoked... very historical. The whole building is 65 meters and not too high. The location of the gunpowder tower was once one of the 13 gates of Prague's old city, and the tower was later built in this location. There used to be magicians here studying alchemy, and later used to store gunpowder, so it is called gunpowder tower. It is currently a museum. Although the appearance of the gunpowder tower is dark, there are actually many reliefs, typical Gothic architecture. There is a watchtower on the gunpowder tower, you can climb to see the Charles Bridge, St. Vit's Cathedral, etc.

    The Powder Tower is one of the original thirteen (13) city gates in Old Town, Prague. Its construction began in 1475.The tower was intended to be an attractive entrance into the city, instead of a defensive tower. Today, the tower separates the Old Town from the New Town of Prague. 🇨🇿

    捷克布拉格的火药塔是一座哥特式塔楼, 原来是个城门,现将旧与新城隔开。建于 1475 年,这座塔旨在成为进城有吸引力的入口,而不是一座防御塔。这座大门塔在17世纪被用来储存火药,因此得名火药塔。

    The tower, a gate on the wall built to defend the old town, was once used as a gunpowder library in the 17th century, and it is now a small museum open to visitors and can climb to the top of the tower overlooking the city of Prague.

    The Powder Tower in the day and night view. It’s called powder tower because it used to house gunpowder during the wartime. The tower still stood tall and mighty at this era and age.

    An internet celebrity attraction near Prague Square, the Czech capital, is an important passage to the old city. Famous for storing gunpowder!

    The Powder Tower is a famous symbol of the grand entrance to the Old Town and Prague. The Powder Tower was built in 1475 AD and later converted into a neo-Gothic style. Its name comes from the 18th century, when the tower was a warehouse for the Powder. The gunpowder tower is 65 meters high and climbs a 186-level spiral staircase to the 44-meter-high observation deck. You can start your tour of the Royal Boulevard.
