Helping you plan amazing holidays
Ljubljana is the perfect destination for a relaxing city break.
Even though it’s Slovenia’s capital, Ljubljana has a small-town charm and laidback atmosphere – you’ll never feel overwhelmed or rushed here. The locals are friendly and there are also plenty of green spaces, making it a truly relaxing holiday destination.
South Korea is mostly known for being modern – even futuristic.
And when you’re in the major cities like Seoul and Busan, you can see this everywhere with all the towering buildings, ultra-bright city lights, and high-speed Internet. Even their tourism organizations highlight the country’s dynamism and rapid progress.
Despite this, however, pockets of cultural destinations where visitors can catch a glimpse of Korea’s splendid past remain. One such destination is Gyeongju – the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Silla, home of some of the best Buddhist art in the Far East.
If you’re into ancient cultures and traditions – or just want a break from the fast cars and bright lights of South Korea’s bustling cities – take a day trip to Gyeongju, South Korea’s ancient capital.

While it’s possible to see the castle town’s highlights on a day trip from Prague, you can easily spend at least two to three days in Český Krumlov. You will most likely spend your first day staring at the beautiful town square from the castle tower, pinching yourself in disbelief at just how amazingly gorgeous the old town is.

From the moment you step into Český Krumlov’s old town, it’s easy to forget you’re in 2020.
The narrow, twisted streets with its cobblestones – each polished and naturally worn by the millions of footsteps it has weathered through the centuries – are designed to conform to the whims and meanders of the Vltava river, adding to the town’s mystery. You cannot see far beyond, making each turn a surprise.
One moment, you’re treated to a row of colorful Gothic houses. Another, a flash of light leads your eyes to a window display of Bohemian garnets and moldavites. One of the most impressive views, however, is when the narrow street of Radniční suddenly opens to the Lazebnický most, the bridge crossing the Vltava on the way to the castle. Suddenly, you are treated to a view of the Vltava river sparkling under the morning sun, the towering state castle preserved from the 14th century, and street musicians giving life to a place seemingly frozen in time.
