South Bohemia: The Historic Town and One or Two Chateaux<\/em><\/p> Thanks to its sumptuousness and the beauty of its interiors, the Hlubok\u00e1 chateau<\/span><\/strong> is probably the most stunning of the surprising number of Czech and Moravian chateaus. It was reconstructed in the 19th<\/sup> century in a Neo-Gothic style by Eleonore of Schwarzenberg, who wished to make it into a mini replica of the Windsor chateau. Visitors can admire truly luxurious interiors, mostly richly inlaid with various kinds of wood, parlours boasting endless works of art from various periods and countries, a splendid library, as well as an armoury. Also, the surroundings of the chateau are exceptionally beautiful, as the chateau is located on a hill and surrounded by an English-style park. Tours are available from January to December.<\/span><\/span><\/p> \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov<\/strong><\/span> is a fairy-tale town that has sustained its Gothic and Renaissance character despite the centuries that have swept through it since. Its main focal point is a chateau proudly towering on a rocky promontory. When we look at the town on the opposite bank of the Vltava River from here, it seems as if it was a small island encircled by a meandering river. It\u2019s an architectural gem set among the forests of South Bohemia. Picturesque medieval houses, some of which were reconstructed in the more majestic Renaissance style, characterize the historic center of the town. The area is a pedestrian zone, with cobblestone winding streets lined with tiny shops, caf\u00e9s and restaurants, offering surprising views of the town. We can also find the Cultural Center of the iconic Austrian painter Egon Schiele, whose mother was born here. The town often became an inspiration to this exceptional expressionist artist. The Center is located in the former Renaissance brewery, hosting various temporary exhibitions throughout the year.<\/p> On the way to Krumlov, your guide will inform you of the many wonder<\/a>s of the Czech Republic, and once there, you will enter the chateau garden, the castle courtyards, and the town. You may have lunch in a typical restaurant with medieval cuisine on the bank of the Vltava River and enjoy the wonderful view. We highly recommend this tour.<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\nHlubok\u00e1 Chateau & \u010cesk\u00fd Krumlov (UNESCO SITE) with Private Guide - D2<\/h1>\n<\/div>
