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.
