Places to visit in the Czech Republic
Pilsner Urquell brewery, Plzen (Pilsen)
Beer paradise: Plzeň
With nearly 500 different kinds of beer, it’s no surprise that it’s the Czech national drink. But you may be surprised to learn that Plzeň is the birthplace of Pilsener beer. While in the Czech Republic, be sure to sample some of the world’s finest light and dark ales, and tour the breweries of Plzeň to see where it all began. Plzeň was built at the convergence of four rivers, so there’s plenty to do outdoors too.
The world-famous Pilsner Urquell Brewery (Plzeňský Prazdroj) is a 5-minute walk from station Plzeň hlavní nádraží.
Little church in Holasovice
Charming Bohemian villages
Don’t miss Holašovice, a 13th century South Bohemian village, where two dozen farmhouses feature lovely gardens and beautiful Baroque architecture. If you like seafood, this is also the place to be.

Intoxicating Central and Southern Moravia
