Český Krumlov

Český Krumlov is a beautiful town of 14,600 inhabitants in Southern Bohemia, in the Czech Republic. Like Prague, the town is situated on the Vltava River and is full of Baroque buildings housing cafes and bars, features a spectacular castle, and an old-town square. The town's appearance is little changed since the 18th century and the buildings have been well maintained and restored.
