In the south of the Bohemian region of the Czech Republic, Český Krumlov is a small city with a rich history and a beautiful castle. A UNESCO World Heritage sight, Český Krumlov draws tourists in from all around the world, and is the literal depiction of a storybook village.
The castle area itself is surrounded by a bear filled moat - yes, bears - and demonstrates a beautiful mixture of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture. Castle tours are available in a variety of languages all year round. The tours provide visitors with an in-depth view of the castle's historical and cultural aspects.
From the castle, which is situated on a large hill, there are spectacular views of the old town and river. This is a great spot for pictures.
Around the castle, there is so much to do! Be sure to "czech" out the many ice-cream shops in the area. My favorite was Smurf (Smoula) flavor - only in the CZ! :) My friends and I also went to this super tacky hall of mirrors/wax museum. It was overpriced and extremely cheesy, but we all had fun.
When walking around the old town, you will find that Český Krumlov has an enchanted and peaceful atmosphere. The cobblestone streets, the historical buildings, the red roof houses - everything comes together perfectly to form this culture hotspot.
Happy travels!
