Ceske Budejovice, German: Budweis
or Böhmisch Budweis, often referred to simply as Budweis in English;
Polish: Czeskie Budziejowice) is a city in the Czech Republic. It is the
largest city in the South Bohemian Region and is the political and commercial
capital of the region and centre of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ceske
Budejovice and of the University of South Bohemia. The town is not to be
confused with Moravské Budejovice in Moravia.
The old town preserves interesting
architecture from Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and 19th century period.
This includes buildings around the large town square, the old town hall
with murals and bronze gargoyles, and the town tower "Cerna Vez" ("Black
Tower"). In the new town the Belle Epoque Austro-Hungarian train station
is notable. The most valuable historical building in Ceske Budejovice is
Dominican convent with Gothic church Presentation of Virgin Mary on Piaristic
square. The horse-drawn railroad line connecting Ceske Budejovice to Linz
was the oldest public line in continental Europe (after the line St.Etienne-Andrexieux
in France), constructed from 1824 to 1832; mere traces of the line can
be seen south of the city center.
The ruins of the home castle of the
Czech national hero Jan Žižka, Trocnov, are located some ten kilometres
southeast from the town. A bit further away (approximately 30 km), the
enchanting town of Cesky Krumlov is another
compulsory stop for the visitor of South Bohemia. In 1992, it was added
to UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. |

is named after King of Bohemia and Holy Roman Emperor Charles IV, who founded
the city in 1370. It is historically famous for its hot springs (13 main

plums (usually Quetsch) are candied in hot syrup, then halved and stuffed
into dried damsons; this gives them a very intense flavour.
The city has been used as the location
for a number of film-shoots, including the 2006 films Last Holiday and
box-office hit Casino Royale, both of which used the city's Grandhotel
Pupp in different guises.

Head
on a Tour of Discovery in Prague by Adam Singleton
For many people, there's
no way to get to know a new city better than simply immersing yourself
in it; heading out for walks, exploring all the nooks and crannies you
might traditionally ignore and enjoying being surrounded by the local atmosphere
of the city's inhabitants. It's certainly true that this is a fantastic
way to get to know Prague in a short amount of time, but there's a lot
to be said for alternative ways by which you can gain an even deeper knowledge
without much more effort.
Every
city that enjoys a good tourism industry has the one thing that many tourists
like to do best - sightseeing tours. Prague is no different from the rest,
except in one way - it is one of the best cities to partake in a tour or
two in Europe. This is because Prague is packed with numerous tours varying
all throughout the spectrum of tastes, meaning that you're guaranteed to
find at least one that caters to what you're interested in finding out
about.
For example, as well as the
traditional sightseeing tours that can be enjoyed by coach, bus or on foot
that take you around the city's biggest historical sites and significant
views, you'll also find many tours offering information on specific subjects
that those who have an interest in a certain aspect of Prague are sure
to love.
These include tours that
head out of the city centre to the countryside for a day of adventure,
exploring hiking routes, abandoned castles and ancient historical sites;
art and architecture tours concentrating on the city's gorgeous buildings;
tours that centre on Prague's spookier side to reveal the city's best ghost
stories and even several free tours conducted by volunteer guides who simply
have to share their love of the city.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, you'll
also be able to indulge in one of several pub crawl tours, where tourists
can discover the Prague nightlife in style with the chance to hit open
bars, the best pubs and the nightclubs that only the locals know about.
Taking in a few tours are
by far one of the best ways to get to know a city. With a massive amount
of knowledge on offer with little effort involved, tours in Prague are
bound to teach you plenty about the city, its history and its culture.
Best of all, you'll be able to return to central Prague hotels following
a long day's touring knowing you more than deserve a great night's sleep.
