Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2008 | Few travelers venture beyond Prague to experience the Czech Republic's many cultural riches and offbeat delights. We'll get started with a whirlwind of Art Nouveau, local pub music, stinky-cheese tasting, river rafting, and peat bathing in places like Olomouc, Moravský Krumlov, Třeboň, and Konopiště. We'll also tour a remarkable memorial to the Holocaust in Terezín, and the charming castle town of Český Krumlov. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #czechrepublic

Und Deutsche sind hier immer willkommen! Thank you very much for your wishes. Everyone should know that this country and its beauty was also build by Germans who lived here for centuries and I am proud to acknowledge this. And German people will always be welcomed here!

By the way... I kinda miss Kutná Hora here. I know there is a lot to mention and you can't cram all the beautiful places into 25 minutes but at least few words... In the 14th century, before the Hussite wars, Kutná Hora was one of the richest cities in the entire Europe. It was all thanks to silver mining and production of coins called Pražský groš which was very popular european currency at that time. Kutná Hora is now listed as a UNESCO world cultural heritage (amongst other 11 places in Czechia).

@@RateMyRestaurantYEG I have never been to Tbilisi thought one day I would love to. I know some people who been there or are from there and I think Prague is definatelly a better choice. At least in terms of an economy and geographical location. Also, in my opinion there is a lot more to do in Prague and the choice of international cusine is wider as its more developed city. You could live on the outskirts of Prague if you wish to live near the nature but still with an easy distance to the city. Retired life can be quite friendly with mushrooming, blueberry hunting, actual hunting, castle visiting, or trekking across the country all very safely.

I went to these places even before Rick Steves promoted these places. It was amazing to go to these places when you did not see too many tourists. For me personally go mid September. No big crowds because all the college students and families have gone back home. The weather is better also. Take your time and don't rush yourself in these places. Spend at least 3 days in these areas.

@@skipnobodycares2018 well, there still are some people. At least from Czech republic (and Slovakia) there are quite a lot of people that have experienced those horendous things and are alive. Interesting thing is that majority of those people have opened up about it and made lots of interviews about their experiences. That must've been really hard for them, but they did it so that younger generations know how it was. Actually, there was in Český Krumlov a lady, who has experienced the holocaust as a teenage girl, who was doing meet ups with classes from schools in the region and talked about her teenage years completely openly, until she unfortunately passed away in spring of 2020. She was one of the sweetest old ladies you could ever meet. There is almost a year long time in every school in Czechia, when students are learning about WWI and WWII. Its needed that younger people know about what was happening during that time. This is extremely imporant, and everywhere in the world people have to learn in detail about these inhuman things. Never ever in history this should be forgotten. Sorry for this being so long, I thought I could've share some more informations.

Brno is in Moravian region where most of the Czech production of wine is being made. If you wanna have a look on lovely Czech country side - than that is a way to start in Brno and travel from there - towards to cities like Mikulov, Břeclav, Hodonín..and maybe even beautiful place near be it - like Lednice (castle).. Moravian people are kind and lovely to meet - but you have to go to country side to really appreciate the traditional view.

Amine Tube It is pretty simple. People in Czech republic and in Europe in general got pretty quickly alergic to immigrants who marched in our countries without bothering to take any ID or legal documents, who came here without any knowledge of our languages, no plan on where to live and work and no idea how to find either of them and yet at the same time shouting from bottom of their lungs how we are responsible for them and that we have to take care of them and allow them whatever they want. Obviously such outlook rubbed lot of people around here wrong. If you want to avoid all this, it is pretty simple: Learn language of country where you want to move in. If you can't learn that language (either due to time constrants or simply no source to learn it from), it can be skipped but then you should secure place to live in and job in that country BEFORE you move in because later here it would be very hard to do so without knowledge of local language. English will not help you everywhere. And of course go through legal routes to get legal documents that will allow you to live here. Unless you are criminal or drug addict they will not make you any problems to aquire them. Also important thing to realize is that Czech Republic is mostly atheistic. There is not much support for religion here. No one is forbidding anyone to believe in whatever he wants but if you are religious, do not expect anyone to bend out of their way because of it or people be interested in it. If you do above mentioned things, you will be accepted without any problems. People around never complain about someone working here. They simply dislike those who came here with intent to not work yet full of demands.

Good video! Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign language, you just need to learn what you can use when you travel. I wish everyone exciting travels!

From the video, it might look as if we were Orthodox before we joined Catholic Austria. But actually, we were Orthodox only for 100 years. Then we were Catholic for 400 years, and then mostly Protestant (we had our own Reformation before Martin Luther).

Don't be hateful towards religious people. Besides I wouldn't say that most Czechs are atheist, but are either agnostic or prefer not to share their personal information. Czech Americans, and I'm sure many Czechs, are practicing Catholics

It is odd that you didn't mention that the man who shot Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Gavrilo Princip, died of tuberculosis in Terezin, where he had been imprisoned after killing the Archduke and his wife in Sarajevo. Especially since you visited Terezin immediately after Konopiste.
