" The main entrance to Vyšehrad is at the seventeenth century Tábor Gate which leads through the remains of the old fourteenth-century rampart, built by King Charles IV. The road then leads to the impressive Baroque Leopold Gate, also dating back to the seventeenth century. The immense ramparts left and right from the Leopold Gate were built in the eighteenth century. You can walk atop the ramparts from where you have great views over Prague. "
