Eastern Bohemia

The region of East Bohemia offers its visitors a wide range of tourist attractions, from castles and chateaus, churches and other monuments, to beautiful and varied landscapes, from the Elbe lowlands to the highest peaks of the Orlicke Mountains. The natural attractions include the well known rock formations Adršpašské and Teplické skály, Broumovské stěny and Železné hory. History lovers will enjoy exploring well preserved historic town centers, as well as the castles of Kunětická hora, Lichnice, Litice, Rychmburk and Svojanov.

The architectural treasures of the region include the Broumov monastery, and the castles in Opočno, Pardubice, Častolovice, Nové Hrady, and Slatiňany. The town of Litomyšl, the birthplace of composer Bedřich Smetana, has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, thanks to its magnificent Renaissance castle. Other attractions include the zoo and safari in Dvůr Králové nad Labem, the open air museum in Hlinsko, or the city walls in Polička, one of the best preserved fortifications in Central Europe.

The range of tourist activities East Bohemia offers is nearly as broad as its sights. Visitors may choose from among numerous monuments and exhibitions, spas with wellness programs, sports resorts and cycling routes, and last but not least, excellent beer and delicious food.
