If you have a day to spare in Prague, this is a trip you shouldn’t miss. Cesky Krumlov presents the Europian architecture in all its glory. Walking on the cobbled streets, the well laid out gardens and gurgling stream actually sends you back to the medieval times and when you hear the stories of the barber’s daughter being thrown out of the castle windows not once but twice having survived her first trauma, narrated so interestingly by your English speaking guide, none other than Mr George, it really gives you the shivers. If you’re a treasure hunter then you must not miss the green coloured stone jewellery unique to this area which got created from meteorite’s debris hitting this area a few millennium back. Our lunch sitting next to the gurgling stream is something I will remember for a long time. An added attraction of this tour if you take it from Prague is the visit to the Kozel brewery where you get to experience the entire beer making process ending with a freshly brewed beer tasting session. But honestly how much you savour and enjoy the trip totally depends on superbly knowledgeable guides like Mr George because the history and the geography of the place is what it makes so unique . Geography comes from nature and the history from people like George. One word of caution though… this trip needs a lot of walking on uneven cobblestones… and the brewery trip lots of moving up and down stairs.
