The Czech Republic's location in the middle of Europe has seen a long history of raiding tribes, conquering armies and triumphant dynasties. This turbulent past has left a legacy of hundreds of castles and chateaux—everywhere you look there seems to be a many-turreted fortress perched above a town, or a summer palace lazing peacefully amid manicured parkland. The number and variety of Czech castles is simply awe-inspiring—everything from grim Gothic ruins to majestic, baroque mansions.
Karlovy Vary (Carlsbad), or simply 'Vary' to Czechs, has stepped up its game in recent years, thanks largely to a property boom spurred by wealthy Russian investors. Indeed, the first thing you'll notice is the high number of Russian visitors, all following in the footsteps of Tsar Peter the Great, who stayed here for treatment in the early 18th century. Day trippers come to admire the grand 19th-century spa architecture and to stroll the impressive colonnades.
