5 Must-See Places When You Visit Czechia

Guest writers

By now you probably know some of the basics and history of Czechia, so today See You Again would like to present the most romantic places you absolutely must not miss when you travel in Czechia. Let's take a look!!

1.Prague Castle & St. Vitus Cathedral

This castle stands majestically in the heart of Czechia's capital, Prague, and is more than 1000 years old!! Besides its venerable age, Prague Castle is also one of the most beautiful pieces of architecture in Europe, and it is truly one of Czechia's most important landmarks.

2.Charles Bridge

This is one of the most famous bridges in Czechia (and in the world). It is called Charles Bridge, or by its older name, Prague Bridge, and it spans the beautiful Vltava River. Statues of saints line both sides of the bridge all the way to each end. There is a belief that anyone who touches them will return to Prague again, so See You Again recommends rubbing them over and over!

3. Old Town Square

This is another place that See You Again highly recommends visiting!!
Besides architecture that feels like stepping back 600 years, it is also a place for shopping for souvenirs, with plenty of local food to taste. A visit to the Old Town Square will leave your eyes and heart full.
As a bonus, walking around gives you stylish photo spots, such as the famous Astronomical Clock standing proudly in the middle of the square.

4.Bone Church (Brno Ossuary)

It is not only mysterious or spooky, but also beautiful. The skull ossuary in Kutna Hora is known as one of the most striking human-skull ossuaries, famous as the Bone Church. It holds the skeletons of more than 40,000 people who died around 1318 and in the wars of the 15th century, known as the Hussite Wars. Because the church stands in a small town with no distractions, its beauty and atmosphere are doubly powerful. On the way to the Bone Church, Kutna Hora also has many other beautiful buildings that you can stop to admire before reaching your destination.

5. Karlovy Vary

Karlovy Vary, or Carlsbad, is the spa capital of the Czech Republic, famous for its mineral water, spas and crystal glassware. The town's name comes from Charles, the king who ruled Bohemia, and Vary, meaning hot spring, so together it means "Charles's hot springs". Legend has it that in 1370, King Charles 4 (Charles IV) discovered mineral springs here while on a hunting trip. Karlovy Vary has hundreds of mineral and hot springs, but only 12 are used for drinking. The rest are used in the spa business for treating various ailments, and they are wonderful for relieving stress. So See You Again would like to recommend this town to anyone looking for a relaxing trip away from stress: come soak in the spas and enjoy the beautiful scenery here.
