Great view and a fantastic monument.

You really have to visit to get the complete impression of scale of the horse and rider statue. If for no other reason, visit this monument to get a great view of Prague. If you actually visit in order to see the monument be sure to walk around the entire building to get a look at the detailed facades on the side doors. Ask yourself what is meant to be conveyed and featured by the various statues.
