Stunning! Probably the most beautiful place we have ever been too. The river winds around and the old city sits on a peninsula like finger. We arrived in the middle of the parade for their five petal rose festival – total chaos! You couldn’t move through the crowds easily and then crowds got all mixed up in the parade and then to top it off it rained! Despite all this Cesky Krumlov’s exquisite charm shone through. After finding our accommodation – not the easiest feat, we spread gear out to dry and headed back to view this magical place. Heaps of people in mediaeval costumes and crowds like we haven’t seen anywhere. The river with the canoes and rafts was busy as well. Some young musicians (well a trombonist and clarinetist) provided entertaining – for people as well as themselves I’d say, as they played poorly. Visited the castle and an old baroque theatre, apparently only 1 of 2 still in existence in the world of that time. Just about castled-out now, at least the tours. This has been a wonderful place to chill out in and it did thin out of people after the weekend which was lovely. Be sad to leave this place.
We've discovered you can either pay more to take photos inside castles or more recently you cannot take any photos at all.
