Weekend in Cesky Krumlov

Last weekend we drove about 190 kilometers south of Prague to the famous town called Cesky Krumlov. This town boasts of being a UNESCO heritage site. Two of the known landmarks in Cesky Krumlov is its castle and the St. Vitus Church. The castle and chateau is known as third most visited monument in the Czech Republic and is the second largest castle complex next to Prague Castle. Below the castle complex are narrow and winding alleys lined with small shops, inns, galleries and restaurants.
