If you have never thought of traveling to the Czech Republic, you are really missing something. Consider this: when the Berlin wall came crashing down, thousands of people made the Czech Republic their home. With good reason. The country, with its fairytale cathedrals, bridges, towers and cobblestone paths are the stuff that dreams are made of. When you travel to Czech, you are immediately struck by the untouched interiors, which are so stunning and dripping with history that they have been placed on the UNESCO’s world heritage list.
Prague or the City of Spires must undoubtedly be your first stop when you travel to Czech. Europe’s finest artists and architects have built its famous buildings. Charming views follow you everywhere. The country has managed to marry tradition with contemporariness, and quite nicely at that! Prague (particularly the central part) is best seen on foot. Taxis are horrendously expensive. The public transport system skirts the outskirts because much of the interior is for pedestrians only. You can start your Czech travel with a walk at Prague Castle. The castle grounds are stunning with their impeccable gardens and cathedrals. A guided tour will give you much insight into what happened where, and who lives there now. A must-have.
Czech travel is quite friendly on the pocket, provided you have the necessary information. For one thing, most attractions are free of charge. Some of the tickets you buy hold good for three days. So, if you’ve missed something, you can always pay a second visit. When compared to the cost of a European tour, prices in Prague and the Czech Republic are still very reasonable. So, it’s a great place to go to on a tight budget.
The Charles Bridge in Vltava is another wonderful sight that you just should not miss when you travel to Czech. This is a 14th century construction and is rightfully considered to be one of the most stunning bridges ever built. Catch a stroll here. You’ll never forget it – and it’s free!
After Prague, it’s time to hop over to the second most visited place in the Czech Republic. It’s called Cesky Krumlov and is the living incarnation of the Bohemian village. Set in a green hilly countryside, this place is ideal for a number of sport activities like golfing, horse riding, biking and hiking. You can even enjoy a rafting trip here. If you love art and museums, you can have you fill here. And when you feel thirsty, just take a sip from home-brewed beer!
If you want to travel to the Czech, one of the best times is the end of September, The weather is cooling down but it’s not the high tourist season. So, everything is affordable. It is also quite calm and private. If you are looking for winter sports, travel to Czech when the snow sets in. Otherwise, winter is not the best time to come simply because the cold can bite into you and many historical places of interest are shut down. That said, never make the mistake of traveling when rains hit the Czech because your holiday plans will be washed out in the heavy downpour.
