Enjoying a central convenient position bordering Germany and Austria and a surge of tourism in the last decades, the Czech Republic is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Europe. The country has so much to offer that you will be not short on activities and ideas while planning your trip to the Czech Republic, where you will find a rich and pristine nature that encompasses lakes, mountains and untouched forests, and many scenic towns and castles dating back to the Middle Ages.
