    This is really an unmissable place. It's a real time capsule of Czechia as it was 100 years ago. Don't miss it!

    This town is a must-see location if you are interested in local culture and history. The historical castle and the city center remains almost intact, since the establishment of the town. It is located close to the Austrian border of Czech Republic and can be visited from both sides. The river and the surrounding mountains also create a nice scenic atmosphere. You may plan to spend half day walking around the streets and enjoying local cafes.

    You have to visit this place when you have the chance. It’s lovely experience, you can walk through the whole house by yourself just with an audio guide. We paid a little extra money and enjoyed being actually photographed in the historic atelier and in the costumes. Definitely recommend that too. Big thank you to the people there, especially the young guy at the counter. He was really sweet and professional!

    Located very close to the main square, this is a small church that is worth visiting - not to mention there is no entry fee.
    The outside is probably worth a few photos (if you find a moment without other tourists), whilst the inside is interesting. Not the prettiest of churches in the Czech Republic but worth spending a few minutes to take in.

    The latran houses along the banks of the river in Cesky Krumlov are definitely worth a visit. Once factories, mills and houses for upclass nobles, they’re now boutique shops, restaurants and hotels….but they still have kept their overall charm. The streets are cobbled, the river is rushing past and even the old water wheel is turning. Definitely a fun way to enjoy the afternoon after a visit to the castle.

    Very beautiful ballroom , also called the Masquerade hall. It is included in the Route 1 tour. The image of the author of the paintings is said to be the one drinking coffee by the window.

    We started in central Cesky Krumlov and walked uphill to the train station. From there it’s a moderately uphill climb on an asphalt road to the trailhead at the end of the road. Fairly straightforward to follow the green/white markings. At the top you have obstructed views so you have to pay to go up the tower for the best views. About 6 miles to the top. We decided to continue on to Holubov from Klet. Follow the rough trail that goes under the chairlift until you reach an asphalt trail that takes you down into the valley. Continue until you arrive at Holubov and work your way to the train station. There are close by cafes to kill time as you wait for the train. Eventually, board train for trip back to Cesky Krumlov. A perfect day trip!

    This beautiful monestry is open to the public and well worth a visit. Another bonus about this place is it is at the bottom of the hill so you don’t need to climb miles like the castle which is also worth it by the way.

    This is a Centre for culture and arts and it is an oasis of calm in the town. Dive of the tourist packed streets into the Gardens of this place and you will have peace and quiet along with beautiful views and photo opportunities

    It is right at the entrance of the city unless you come in behind and go straight to the castle from the marketplace. It is well built. You can rent kayaks just down beside the water.

    Stopped in for a few beers and felt transported back in time. Lovely old building, great ambiance, nice beer selection, and, a mandatory stop when in the village.

    The church itself was converted into apartments a very long time ago, however the tower can still be accessed by the public and gives some impressive views of the city.

    Its only a 9k drive from Cesky Krumlov but it feels much further. You start at the railway station in the village of Tristov. There are two options. We did a circuit hike. First 2k along the tiny road (no traffic) to the right, which is a nice walk although 3/4 through fields and 1/4 through forest with one small stream crossing over a bridge. The after visiting the castle (bring CZ cash for entry) walk back the other way 1.5K along the red trail - all through forests but quite steep. The trail is really much nicer and really feels like hiking, although of course short distance. There are some nice views. The ruins itself is interesting but all the signs are only in Czeck so hard to understand the significance. If you are limited on time this is not probably worth skipping Cesky Krulov but if you are there a few days and looking for something else in the area to do this is a good option if you like off the beaten path walks and rural views of countryside and streams. I suppose you can take a train but we drove. There is also another 2K walk to the ruins from another parking area but I was not sure how to get there.

    You can't miss this tower as you can see it clearly due to its colours. The views of the town was great from the top of the tower.
