While enjoying local cuisine during your travels is great, there are times when you crave the taste of home. The Korean restaurant I visited in Prague, Czech Republic, was perfect for satisfying that longing 😋. The menu featured familiar dishes like kimchi stew, bulgogi, and bibimbap. The bulgogi, in particular, was sweet and savory, making it a favorite even among locals. The side dishes were neatly presented, giving me the feeling of dining back in Korea 🥢. Although the prices were slightly higher compared to the local cost of living, the chance to experience the taste of home while traveling made it well worth it. ✅ Authentic Korean dishes like kimchi stew and bulgogi 🍖 ✅ Clean and well-prepared side dishes 🥗 ✅ Highly recommended for travelers missing Korean food 💕 If you're looking for a unique meal in the Czech Republic, be sure to stop by this Korean restaurant! 🌟

#autumnseason Czech autumn is equally enchanting! The season typically starts in September and lasts through November. The countryside and cities are adorned with beautiful fall foliage, making it a great time for scenic walks and hikes. Places like Český Krumlov and Prague look especially magical with the autumn colors. You can also enjoy seasonal activities like visiting local vineyards during the grape harvest, known as "vinobraní," or exploring the many castles and historical sites without the summer crowds. Plus, the cooler weather is perfect for enjoying hearty Czech cuisine, like goulash and roast duck.

Leaving the spa town of Podebrady, despite the summer heat felt outdoors, it doesn't stop my curiosity and exploration of this city... Entering the Mineral Museum in the Dvur Kralove nad Labem region, the two-story building houses countless native minerals and gem collections that the owner has been gathering from around the world since the age of ten. If visiting with children, you can also experience the joy and beauty of panning for gold and stones just like I did 😊 (but remember there's an extra charge) After such an interesting time, why not try your hand at making traditional glass ornaments in Miletin, just like the locals... How about it, isn't my creation pretty good👍 But time flies, and it's already time for afternoon tea. Let me quickly recommend Horicke (rolls) – a pastry shop with hundreds of years of history. The super nice owner couple introduced the shop's history and baking process throughout, and I even made two myself. (I'll post a video in a few days, they were very tasty) A day full of fun and fulfillment, but don't forget to check into the Clarion hotel Zlatý lev before evening. This luxury city hotel retains early last century or even earlier decor, furnishings, and traditional architecture. Order a few refreshing beers dating back to 1564 at the corner restaurant, and enjoy a leisurely and beautiful evening. Good night to everyone. Czech Republic·Europe

This time Piao'er stayed in Český Krumlov for three nights, and the most popular place to hang out was of course the Old Town! The town of CK is actually not very big and can be walked in about 2 hours. However, this town is full of medieval buildings that look like buildings in fairy tales. The roads are full of artistically designed household groceries. The most important thing is that the prices are very affordable. The price is affordable, and the things are very unique. Walking on the gravel road, I seriously feel that Kurenlov is really suitable for life. Therefore, when Piao'er was in CK, he would definitely come to the old town for a walk almost every day. I will write this article about the old town of CK Town that I walked through into a one-day tour! 🏡💖 🏠Medieval style architecture Kulunlov is located in the upper reaches of the Vltava River. The entire river course divides Kulunlov into two areas like Tai Chi, the "Castle District" in the northeast and the "Old Town" surrounded by the river in the southwest. Kulunlov Most of the buildings in the city were built between the 14th and 17th centuries. The architectural styles are mainly Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles, while the old city is mainly Baroque style. Looking at this corrugated wall, it is actually just an artistic expression and has no practical meaning. Use! Walking in the small town of CK, you will find that many of the walls of the buildings seem to be painted. Because the Czech Republic is not as rich as other powerful countries in Europe, large stone bricks and marbles cannot be used in building materials, not only the houses but also the castles. The walls have to be painted! 🚗Transportation Prague to CK Town: Bus It takes 3 hours by bus from Prague. There are two main bus companies between Prague and CK Town: FlixBus and Regio Jet – Student Agency. After careful calculation, we found that it was cheaper to buy round-trip tickets from two bus companies than from the same bus company! Generally speaking, there are discounts for purchasing round-trip ticket combinations from the same bus company, but the problem is that the timing of these combinations is not very good: for example, a 10 am outbound trip with a 6 pm return trip, so The day trip was shortened to a very short time. Therefore, in order to have enough time to visit the small town of CK, we purchased tickets with a time that was more suitable for our itinerary budget. We took the FlixBux bus from Prague to CK Town at 8 a.m. and arrived at CK Town at about 11 o'clock; from CK Town back to Prague, we took the Regio Jet bus at 7 p.m. The bus stop back to Prague is 10 point. Pay special attention to the location of the bus stop. It is best to arrive 15 minutes in advance. Since there are several bus stations in Prague and CK Town, you need to check the map in advance and don’t wait at the wrong place. 💖CK town attractions 1.The Castle Tower🌈 The Painted Tower is in the second courtyard of the castle and is the tallest building in the town of CK. The Painted Tower has a total of 147 stairs, and the circular 6-story tower is surrounded by small castle palaces.

On the Cloak Bridge stand statues of saints. 4. Fifth City Plaza Observation Deck There are many small windows on the wall of the Fifth City Square. These were used by castle soldiers in the past for reconnaissance and lookout. You can take pictures of the town through these small windows. 5.

Czech street food is rich and diverse, and mead is a classic traditional Czech drink made from honey and herbs. This wine has a sweet taste and aromatic aroma and is often served as a winter warming drink. You can find this delicious mead at street stalls or bars and savor its unique flavors. Potatoes are also one of the staple foods, and potato chips are a classic Czech favorite snack. They usually come in the form of larger potato chips, fried to a crispy golden color.

The wraps are usually sprinkled with powdered sugar or other toppings such as chocolate sauce, jam or ice cream. Its crispy outside and soft inside texture and the combination of various ingredients make chimney rolls a popular European dessert choice and are also very popular in Taiwan this year. #prague #czech #snacks #food tour

|♨️The Czech town of Český Krumlov is well-deservedly known as one of the most beautiful towns in the world. This small town, with only 14,100 residents, is located in the Bohemian region of southern Czech Republic, upstream of the Vltava River, about 160 kilometers from the Czech capital, Prague. ♨️The deep blue sky and the gentle white clouds make the town dreamlike. You can see the panoramic view of Krumlov city by going up to Krumlov Castle. Explore the various Czech puppets in the Puppet Museum. The Gothic St. Vitus Church, built in 1439 and named after the St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague, is one of the landmarks of Krumlov. ♨️Krumlov can be casually walked around in no more than three hours. However, the terrain here is undulating, with mountains and water, and walking among these romantic buildings that have stood for centuries, the dreamy temperament felt is hard to describe. This small town is a pure and beautiful haven in the restless world. 🔆Château de Versailles Built in 1204, the William Castle is the largest castle in the Bohemian region outside of Prague Castle. It has stood in Český Krumlov for nearly a thousand years and is incredibly impressive. 🔆St. Vitus Cathedral St. Vitus Cathedral is the oldest and largest church in Krumlov, Czech Republic, built in the early 14th century as a place of worship for the local people. The architectural style of the church is mainly Gothic, with a fusion of Baroque style. It stands on the banks of the Vltava River, with its spires towering into the clouds, making it a magnificent sight. 🔆Czech beer When you come to Czech Republic, be sure to taste the local beer. Although German beer is well-known, Czech people are actually the ones who love beer the most, so the beer here is also worth a try. Czech Republic · Europe

I went skydiving in the Czech Republic⛰🪂 One of my bucket list items was skydiving, so I'm glad it came true✨ But my ears really hurt when I went up on the plane(?) I got tinnitus because of skydiving... It's okay when I'm on a big plane, but when I'm on a small plane like T'way, my ears hurt so much that I'm about to cry😭 Not everyone is like me, and I'm just a special case..so I think it's good to know! But I think skydiving is a bucket list item that I absolutely have to accomplish in my life. When I went up on the plane, I was so scared that my heart kept pounding and I thought I was going crazy until I jumped off. I thought about just getting off in the middle But after jumping off the plane, wow~~I think I understand why people say you have to do skydiving Oh right! In Czech Republic, I spent 200,000-400,000 won including the camera and other expenses! I recommend skydiving🥰 #youthtravel #falltraveldestination #exotic #foodkitlist #memoryselling #traveladdict #emotional #lifetraveldestination #nightviewspot #luge #everydaytravel #historicalsitetour #drivingcourse #uniquedate #Europeansensibility #Europeanbackpackingtravel #CzechRepublic #countrytravel

Podyjí National Park is a natural protected area in the South Moravian Region situated along the border with Austria between the towns of Znojmo and Vranov nad Dyjí. Although it’s relatively small in size, it’s bursting with natural splendour. It lures travellers with its unspoiled charm, ubiquitous tranquillity, breathtaking views and hundreds of rare species of fauna and flora. Podyjí is a place every nature lover should see. The Czech name Podyjí refers to the region around the Dyje, a river famed for its fascinating meanders and green alluvial floodplains. In German, the river is called Thaya, and hence the valley is also known as Thayatal. Podyjí National Park is the counterpart of the Austrian Nationalpark Thayatal, situated on the opposite side of the valley. The symbol of Podyjí National Park is a black stork, gorgeous bird nestling in the natural reserve every summer. Moreover, the Podyjí is a wildlife sanctuary for tens of species of mammals. The river shores are inhabited by otters and beavers, while the shadows of the dense mixed coniferous forests offer a refuge for roe deers, foxes or wild boars. From time to time, tweeting of the river kingfisher or howling of the Eurasian eagle-owl may be heard. The very southeastern part of the reserve is a gorgeous heath habitat spreading from Znojmo in Czechia to Retz in Austria. Other rare species of flora include e.g. Pulsatillas, Irises and Orchids.

If you take a train from Prague for three or four hours, you will come across a famous trekking course. It was a little difficult, as it was better because there were not many Korean tourists. I had to walk more than I thought, and the place nicknamed the Gate of Heaven was as beautiful as its name. They say that the shape was created due to weathering, but the hole is getting bigger and bigger, so it will not be visible in the near future. On the way back, I stretched out on the train. (I stretched my legs a little because there was no one in front of me…) #Czech Republic travel #Hiking #Hidden travel destination #Gate of Heaven #Pravcicca Brana

Prague Castle is a place where Roman and Gothic-style cathedrals are gathered. I recommend taking a tram from downtown Prague. Like Buckingham in England, Prague Castle also has a guard changing ceremony, so if you go at the right time, you can see a small-scale guard changing ceremony. At Prague Castle, there is a Starbucks that offers a panoramic view of downtown Prague. Since it is so famous, it is difficult to sit down, so it is better to take a picture and get something to go. •Address: 3CR2+CJ Prague 1 Czech Republic Prague #Czech Republic Travel #Overseas Travel Destination Recommendation #Prague #Prague Starbucks

Pilsner Urquell is one of the Czech lagers, and there is a Pilsner Urquell brewery in Plzen, Czech Republic. If you make a reservation, you can also take a tour of the brewery! It's not far from Prague, so you can rent a car and go there in a day. They explained everything from the beer ingredients to the manufacturing process, and at the end, there was a chance to taste draft beer. If you go into the information center, you can buy a beer mug with your name engraved on it. Even if you don't sign up for the beer tour, you can drink draft beer at the restaurant or pop-up store inside the brewery. • Address: U Prazdroje 7, 301 00 Plzeň 3, Czech Republic #Czech Republic travel #Overseas travel destination recommendation #Beer travel #European beer

Café pupp (Czech Republic) ~Hot apple strudel with walnuts and vanilla ice cream 🍎 The must-eat apple pie. Apple pie is a traditional Czech dessert. I heard that each household will have its own unique recipe.

My favorite in Europe is Central Europe. Last year, the trip to Hungary was very good. I took my parents to Czech Republic in the summer and stayed in the Old Town of Prague for three days. It is not only romantic but also very pleasant.
