The Czech Republic is our home country, so it is probably allowed to be a little bit biased here.
The Czech Republic, also known as Czechia is a landlocked country in the middle of Europe and thanks to its position we use to say that it is a heart of Europe. The countryside, national parks, and mountains are nice, but the most of visitors are driven to visit the Czech Republic because of its rich history. The land is dotted with medieval castles, palaces, ruins, historical cities, and churches.
The majority of all tourists usually visit the capital Prague, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, but the rest of the country certainly deserves some attention as well and shouldn't be ignored. Other cities such as Cesky Krumlov, Karlovy Vary or Kutna Hora are popular one-day trips from Prague, but we hope to show you unknown beautiful corners of the Czech Republic and inspire you to stay a little bit longer.
