St. Vitus Cathedral is the Roman Catholic church located within Prague Castle. Construction began in 1344 and was completed 600 years later! While the cathedral is predominantly Gothic in style, you can find Renaissance and Baroque influences.
This place deserves a mega post or two, maybe 3...so much to look at and so much history to share. Today, I will whet your appetite and use this picture as a test of your architectural element knowledge...how many features can you name? Dazzle me with your expertise by leaving your comments below. :D

A buttress and a rose window! :) I love that cathedral. It was so cool to finally visit it - and have a beer right outside, under the gargoyles!

This place and the whole city, for that matter, caused me to audibly gasp many, many times! Beer under the gargoyles?! Now I have a reason to go back!!!

I just noticed how much it reminds me of fractals. Odd.

I see this, to some extent, happening in the arch detail...in reverse though.
And this in the window...obviously.
What are seeing, specifically?
