For many visitors to the Czech Republic, Prague is the principal destination and while the capital city is a beautiful city with lots to see and do, the rest of the country certainly should not be disregarded. Officially the Czech Republic is divided into three historic regions, Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia, though most of Silesia is now situated within present date Poland. Here are some of the major attractions of a visit to the Czech Republic…Bohemia
As well as being the capital Prague is the largest city. Its historical centre is the major attraction here and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The main sites include the largest ancient castle in the world, Prague Castle; The Old Town with its Astronomical Clock, many churches, historical buildings and monuments; the New Town, which although called ‘new’ was still built back in the 14th century!; the Strahov Monastery; and the Prague Dancing House.
In addition to Prague, Bohemia also includes numerous other beautiful towns and cities. Amongst these are Pilsen, which you might guess from the name was the birthplace of Pilsner beer! Museums, galleries, the second largest synagogue in Europe, the Town Hall, and the Historical Underground Network are amongst the attractions here, plus of course a brewery tour!
Cesky Krumlov also has a UNESCO World Heritage Site listed historical centre due to the array of historical architectures here including Medieval, Baroque and Renaissance. The Cesky Krumlov Castle that overlooks the town is very popular and was built in the 13th century.
Talking of castles, the Karlstejn Castle that is situated just outside Prague is the most visited castle in the Czech Republic. This was completed in 1365.
Moravia
The Moravia region is also full of historical attractions including many World Heritage Sites. There are many lovely cities here to visit including Telc with its beautiful architecture.
