To truly understand the spirit of our country, every itinerary should include a mix of these iconic highlights:
Prague’s Royal Heritage: Explore the sprawling Prague Castle and witness the hourly show of the Astronomical Clock, the oldest working clock of its kind (installed in 1410).
The Art of Czech Glass: Discover the "Crystal Valley" in the north. Czech glass and crystal, brands like Moser or Preciosa, have set the global standard for luxury and craftsmanship for over seven centuries.
The Birthplace of Pilsner: Czechia has the world’s highest beer consumption per capita. Visit the Pilsner Urquell Brewery in Plzen to taste the original golden lager directly from oak barrels.
A Fairytale of Castles: With over 2,000 castles and chateaus, Czechia has the highest density of these monuments in the world. Don't miss the Gothic Karlstejn or the romantic, white-walled Hluboka.
Bohemian Paradise (Cesky raj): A haven for hikers, this UNESCO Geopark is famous for its "rock cities"—towering sandstone formations and labyrinthine paths nestled among medieval ruins.
Cesky Krumlov: A South Bohemian jewel. This perfectly preserved Renaissance town, wrapped in a loop of the Vltava River, feels like stepping back 500 years in time.
The Royal Spa Triangle: Visit Karlovy Vary or Marianske Lazne to experience the grand atmosphere of 19th-century European aristocracy. Mineral springs, colonnades, and world-class wellness treatments.
Kutna Hora: Once the silver-mining treasury of Europe. Visit the hauntingly beautiful Sedlec Ossuary (the Bone Church) and the magnificent Gothic St. Barbara’s Cathedral.
South Moravian Wine Culture: In the sun-drenched south, explore the Lednice-Valtice Complex, the largest artificial landscape in the world, while sampling award-winning white wines in local cellars.
UNESCO World Record: For its size, Czechia has an incredible number of UNESCO World Heritage sites (currently 17).
Safety: We are consistently ranked as one of the top 10 safest countries for travelers.
The Crown Jewels: The Czech Crown Jewels are kept in a hidden chamber in St. Vitus Cathedral, secured by seven different keys held by seven state officials.
Mushroom Hunting: It’s the national sport. Czechs are obsessed with foraging for mushrooms in the summer and autumn.
The Word "Robot": This globally used term was coined by a Czech writer, Karel Capek (and his brother Josef), in 1920.
