2025 Cesky Krumlov District Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

The Czech Republic is one of the very romantic places in Europe for me A combination of modern and traditional buildings can be seen in the heart of CK The rooftop creeks are all filled with European fairy tales Really miss this place I recommend you to walk a little higher so you can overlook the town #WinterTravel

In the fairy-tale town in the Czech Republic, just walking around feels like you are in a fairy tale book. It is recommended that you book a homestay in advance. Most of the homestays here are very standard, clean and have sufficient space. I highly recommend you go take photos in these alleys. Just strolling around is already full of romance #colorfulday #wintertravel

The reason I started liking small cities, Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic❤️ I think it was even better because the sky was prettyㅎ At the Christmas market here, I bought a Harry Potter music box as a gift for my friend!! I was embarrassed because the market owner spoke Korean👀 When I walk around Cesky Krumlov, I feel like I've taken a time machine and gone back in time🕰 #Cesky Krumlov travel #Czech Republic travel #Solo travel #Travel So

📸️📍The most obvious building in the castle area is this colorful painted tower, which combines Gothic and Renaissance styles. It is the tallest building in CK town. If you want to visit the lighthouse, you must first climb 147 steps. After reaching the top, you can overlook the beauty of the entire CK town in 360 degrees, just like the scenes of a fairy tale unfolding before your eyes😍😍 Český Krumlov 克姆洛夫 Also known as CK Town📍 #Czech Republic #克姆洛夫 #Europe #I miss you so much

Completely different from the expectation that it would be similar to Prague Another surprise was given by ‘Cesky Krumlov’ This is the second protagonist of the recommendation of small European cities❣️ Isn’t it also the most famous city near Prague? *Cesky is about 3 hours away from Prague The more I walked, the more I entered a new space It felt like a scene from a fairy tale was unfolding! Cesky,, I got drunk on this place.. ♡ Just walking around the town I was happy ~ My eyes were dazzled ~ 🥰 ⭐️TIP ✔️There is no need to buy a ticket to Cesky Krumlov Castle ❌ From what I found out, I thought I had to buy it, but when I visited in person, it seemed like I only had to buy it to go inside the building ◡̈ ✔️Cesky is known to Koreans as a fairy tale city But as you can see in the picture, it is also quite famous for ‘kayaking’! So I'm going to use this as an excuse to go back and have fun kayaking 🚣🏻‍♀️🚣🏻‍♀️♡ . #EuropeanTravel #CeskyKrumlu #NostalgicTravel #TravelSickness #SuburbanTravel #DayTrip

#hellohalloween #october2025 Hidden within the cobbled lanes of Český Krumlov, Krčma Šatlava offers more than a meal — it’s an experience straight out of the Middle Ages. Step through its arched doorway and you’re greeted by the glow of open flames, the crackle of the hearth, and the scent of meat roasting slowly over embers. Set within an ancient stone cellar, the tavern’s dim firelight dances across rough-hewn walls and wooden beams, wrapping guests in a timeless, intimate warmth. Here, the past feels alive — each clatter of tankards and hiss from the grill echoing centuries of hearty feasts and laughter. The stars of the menu are the grilled pork ribs and steaks, cooked before your eyes on the open fire, their smoky aroma filling the room. Paired with a cold Czech beer, it’s rustic perfection — comfort and authenticity at their finest. 💡 Tip: Šatlava is immensely popular, so reservations (by email) are highly recommended. Come hungry, come early, and let this fiery cellar transport you into the delicious heart of medieval Bohemia.

I wanted to share Český Krumlov with you. It’s one of those towns that feels like it’s been waiting for you. Like someone opened a very old book and let the pages spill out onto the banks of a winding river. 📸✨ Get your camera ready for this fairytale town. This place isn't big. You can walk the whole thing in a few hours. When you turn a corner and suddenly, there is that castle in the pictures. It just takes your breath away. I remember standing there, and the air was cool and I could hear the sound of the river running and it felt like I was in a completely different time. The castle is the main thing, of course. You have to climb the tower. The view from up there, it’s not just a view of buildings. It’s a view of a story. A very old story, with red roofs and the river carving its own path through time. It’s the kind of place that just makes me happy to be a part of it. A lot of people come for the day, and they get to see a little bit of the town. But the real town, the one that hums with life, that one wakes up after the buses leave. If you can, stay the night. Just one night. Walk the streets when they’re quiet, when the lights come on and the sound of the river is all you hear. It’s a feeling that’s hard to describe, but it’s a moment of true peace. For food, go for the fresh Czech classics. Hearty goulash, thick slices of roasted pork. Most restaurants serve up meals with real heart. And the beer, of course. Just find a little place by the river and listen to the quiet. More stops: - Church of St. Vitus (Kostelní ul., 381 01): Epic gothic architecture and serious main character energy. - Egon Schiele Art Centrum (Široká 71): For the artsy vibes. - Museum Fotoatelier Seidel (Linecká 272): Throwback to vintage photography styles! - Wax Museum (Kájovská 68): Take a quirky peek at Czech history. - Regional Museum (Horní 152): Don’t miss the giant ceramic model of old-town Krumlov! #czech #czechia #czechrepublic #ceskykrumlov #ČeskýKrumlov #europe #travel #fairytale #castle

#Let's go abroad Cesky Krumlov Beer is cheap! It's delicious! Prices in the Czech Republic are cheaper than in Austria. The exchange rate at the currency exchange in the city is not bad, so I exchanged money here. Now, to the popular restaurant I had reserved. Restaurant: Krcma v Satlavske Ulici Reservations are required even in the off-season! I'm not good at making reservations over the phone, so I went to the restaurant directly before it opened and made a reservation. lol I ordered a beef steak and the restaurant's recommended grill combo, but it was too much for three people. lol I didn't need the steak in terms of quantity, but the steak was the best. They grilled it over charcoal in front of me, so everything was delicious! I couldn't snack, so I couldn't order dessert, which was a shame. The two girls sitting behind me ate the entire combo (feels good) The staff were all friendly and kind. The customers even talked to me kindly and took photos for me. I'm impressed by how many kind people there are in the Czech Republic! #CzechRepublic #Seniors #CeskyKrumlov

#2月好去地方2025 When you come to the Czech town of Český Krumlov, you can’t miss this famous cellar restaurant “Krčma Šatlava”! Luckily, we asked on the spot and found out there was room for dinner the next day, so of course we made a reservation immediately. Walking into Krčma Šatlava is like stepping into a medieval European scene. The atmosphere of the brick-walled cave is very well created, with some antique ornaments and a retro fireplace. Dining under the dim, swaying light is really a special experience. The cellar restaurant is famous for its pork knuckle ribs, which are large in portion, well-seasoned, tender and chewy. They are quite outstanding. The roasted pork neck (pine board) is also delicious. As for the traditional German bread soup, I really can't get used to it. The taste is too salty, and the bread becomes mushy after being soaked in the soup. I personally don't like it very much. There are a lot of group guests in the whole restaurant. It seems that the Czech tour groups all choose to eat at this restaurant, so the business is very hot. Although the food is not amazing, it tastes pretty good, the atmosphere is good, and it is not expensive. You can definitely come and try it. #CzechTravel #Kurenlov #cktown #cellarrestaurant

#JapanFlightEvent If you visit Cesky Palace, take a little more time to climb up and you can see a wonderful view If you go inside the castle, there is a pretty garden at the end If you are willing to walk up, you can take a walk and relax in the beautiful garden. There is no better place to see the town's scenery. The garden is very well decorated

#일본항공권이벤트 A fountain in a manicured garden. If short on time skip it and spend your time in the town but if you have time it’s a nice enough walk. It was so lovely ❤️

šatlava, a famous restaurant in Cesky Krumlov, is a restaurant that you should not miss. The price is not expensive, the food is very delicious. The menu that we ordered Roast Pork Knee is very delicious, grilled to perfection, crispy skin, it is a menu that every table orders. Grilled Ribs is another menu that I want to say is very delicious (again). The sauce that they pour on the Ribs goes well together. Mix Grilled is a combination of grilled meats, very delicious. Every menu goes well with cold beer. I highly recommend this restaurant, but you should make a reservation in advance if you don't want to miss out on delicious menus. #satlava #ceskykrumlov #cz

I took lots of pictures of the two brown bears... they were cute, but so lazy. Every time I look at them they are usually dozing off, haha ​​(or just scratching their inches) Anyway, they are kind of soft, friendly and cute. They are the actors’ pets. Don't feed or harm them. I like these two cute little bears. #2024TravelWish ~ Travel to Sicily, Italy

An amazing technological monument and one of the greatest architectural attractions in the region. The Cloak Bridge spans the castle moat on the west side of the Upper Castle, where the fortifications were once called "the Cloak", hence the name. The object stands on a stone pillar with an arch. It's more of a viewing point. This is the perfect spot from which you can take photos of the entire medieval town, castle, bridge and reservoir. No photo or film can convey this experience. In winter and spring, admission is of course free. #2024TravelWish ~ Travel to Sicily, Italy

The town’s over 400-year-old gate is the only surviving of the nine city gates. Access to the gate was originally provided by a wooden drawbridge, the holes of which with wooden pulleys still remain. The modern city emblem is installed in the area above the portal. You’ll feel like you’re in a fairytale movie set…in fact, the whole town is magical. #2024TravelWish ~ Travel to Sicily, Italy
