A long drive to a town that looks drawn by hand

Český Krumlov, in southern Bohemia, is a castle on a rock, a painted tower and a few hundred red roofs held in a loop of the Vltava. The whole centre is UNESCO-listed.

It is our longest drive from Prague, about two and a half hours each way, so eight hours door to door leave around three in town: the castle courtyards and tower, a walk through the old town and lunch by the river.
