Route

1. Our first visit will be Hluboká nad Vltavou Castle. The castle owes its current appearance to the Schwarzenberg family and is often described as the most beautiful Czech castle.  A piece of Windsor England in the middle of South Bohemia.That’s how one could sum up the magical Hluboká Castle, which got its present appearance in the 19th century after a Neo-Gothic reconstruction. Hluboká Castle was originally founded as a guardian castle in the middle of the 13th century by Bohemian kings. Within the context of the Romantic modification of the noble residence, the Schwarzenbergs founded an expansive landscaped park in the mid 19th century.  The castle with its 140 rooms and 11 towers offers several tour variants. During the tour of the castle, one can peek inside private rooms and lavish ceremonial halls with carved paneling, coffered ceilings, elegant furnishings, crystal chandeliers and rich collections of paintings, silver, porcelain and tapestries. Entrance fee is not included.

2. Červená Lhota stands at the middle of a lake on a rocky island. Its picturesque Renaissance building is a destination of thousands of tourists every year. Its name Červená Lhota meaning "red lhota" can be explained by the colour of the château's bright-red roof tiles. There is also a park, where the Chapel of the Holy Trinity is located. The four-winged two-storey château, with a small courtyard in the center, occupies the whole rock and juts into the fishpond. A stone bridge, built in 1622, links the château with the banks of the pond, replacing the original drawbridge. The interiors have an extensive collection of historic furniture, tiled stoves, pictures, porcelain and other items. The southern edge of the fishpond is covered in thick forest, which forms a backdrop to the château. A marked circular path trenches around the fishpond. Rowing across  the fishpond is a pleasant diversion on a hot summer day, and boats can be hired near the château.

About Praag

Praag toont een skyline vol torenspitsen boven de Moldau, met een kasteel op de heuvel, een brug vol beelden en een middeleeuwse oude stad.

Het Praagse Kasteel, een van de grootste kasteelcomplexen ter wereld, kroont de heuvel van Hradčany, met de Sint-Vituskathedraal in het midden en de piepkleine huisjes van het Gouden Straatje erachter. Daaronder leiden de barokke paleizen en terrastuinen van de Kleine Zijde naar de Karelsbrug, die vol staat met heiligenbeelden en vanaf het ochtendgloren druk is.
