\u00c7esky Krumlov was mentioned almost every time we mentioned we were going to Prague. I would hear “it’s delightful” and I would say “interesting, what is so delightful about \u00c7esky Krumlov?” Almost no one answered, but now when I recommend it, I can tell you why it is the second most visited village in Czechoslovakia. This medieval village is seriously photogenic, historic, arty and the food was\u00a0wonderful.\u00a0It is the village you have to plan to visit and it takes more than just jumping on a train to get here. We left Prague on one bus, then another, travelled for over two hours and just managed to get the bus driver to let us off at the correct spot.<\/p>\n

View from the Castle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After a wander around the town, it was wonderful to go through the castle. Not all three hundred rooms but enough to see what splendour the former royalty lived in. The water coloured tower is the beginning of the castle.<\/p>\n

There is a splendid archway to link the Castle and the\u00a0Theatre.<\/p>\n

This UNESCO World Heritage site is so picturesque and so green. The medieval towers, buildings and bridges are quite lovely. We also love the idea of local ales and wines. Our favourite sign was Fairy Tale House Puppets and Wine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There were art galleries on every corner and several types of art. So if you find yourself in Prague, add a brief interlude in \u00c7esky Krumlov, enjoy the meandering River Vltava and trust that you will have a delightful time.<\/p>\n
