Czech Republic

Chesky Krumlov


A very small town in Czech Republic. It was built on the bend of a river which provided a natural moat or barrier from enemies.

Views of the town from the tower in the Rosenberg's Palace



You can see the tower on the Palace in this photo

I really want to go to Prague within a year. Can you get around OK without knowing Czech? Do you recommend anyplace to stay or things to do?

I believe that chandelier was originally hung over the bones organ in "The Goonies". And honestly, what IS with all the dachshunds?
