Southern Bohemia (Jižní Čechy)
South of Prague. A beautiful
area with cozy towns that look like they were taken out of a fairy
tale. Don't
miss Český Krumlov, one of the many locations in the Czech Republic
that are protected by the UNESCO. Walk around Jindřichův Hradec
or České Budějovice (make sure you try the original Budweiser),
spend an afternoon in the picturesque Třeboň and its surroundings.
The whole area is known for its pretty man-made lakes that are
used for growing fish. The traditional Christmas carp come from
there, too.
