    Žiju trvale v ČR již 11 let, byl jsem poprvé v Jižních Čechách jen v roku 2019, hned jsem se zamiloval do Českých Budějovic, Českého Krumlova a Třeboně. Od té chvili musím každý rok navštívit tuto nádhernou končinu, která mě nikdy nepřestává překvapit svou půvabou a skrytým kouzlem. Od 2022 léto strávím na Lipně a okolí, nikde nezklame, dorazím na místo s nejlepším očekáváním a odtamtud se pokaždé vrácím s nejhezčími pocity a dojmy. Jižní Čechy jsou naprosto báječné!

      Yeah the green grass is and lush forests are entirely different to what you are used to in subtropical climates. Our climate means you get 4 seasons, and since we are half continental half oceanic climate type, there are no crazy extremes like -40°C. Harsh winter is -20°, hot summer is around 35°C. To be honest with you, you can just point your finger into the map and visit the area. This country is ideal for cycling, and during last 2 decades even dutch discovered us, and started buying cottages for summer vacations.

    Thanks to your first video about České Budějovice, I spent an extended weekend there two years ago and loved it. České Budějovice is a beautiful, lively town. From there I did a day trip to Český Krumlov (beautiful but also very touristy) and a boat trip to Charles castle from where I ran/hiked back to České Budějovice via Hluboká castle. I can really recommend a visit - and it's only a short train ride from Vienna (where I live).

    • @Pyrochemik007
      @Pyrochemik007 Před 2 lety +2

      Try Třeboň and Jindřichův Hradec next. There is a train going there from České Budějovice, it is about 40 min ride. You can also hop of the train from Linz to Prague in "Veselí nad Lužnicí" and change to train heading to east, it is 20 mins and 40 respectively. There is a narrow railway in Jindřichův Hradec, both have historic centers and castles.
      Alternate idea is visiting Boubín mountain, which is however quite remote place, so maybe look for camping nearby. One of the oldest nature reserves is there. And there are some fortifications from WW2 around as well.

    Czechs should really promote their country as a bike paradise - while the city bike infrastructure is still poor (most cities deal with cyclists by marking a cyclist pictogram on the roadsides instead of building a separate bike lanes for them), the country as a whole has tons, TONS of bike paths both asphalt and gravel ones crossing fields, rivers, interesting places and pubs, interconnecting almost every town. There are also many MTB single trails that were created in recent years for mountain bikers.

    2:37 "Ferrata" sounds so Italian! Well, "ferrata" actually IS an Italian word, and it means "made of iron". It's feminine (we have grammar genders in Italian, even if just two), maybe implying a feminine noun, e.g. "via" ("way, path"). That would make it "iron path". Is it possible that this name was chosen because of the iron "steps"? And if it is so, why Italian?

      @@hernzo9798 It's getting worse even here again, we have about 150 cases every day, which looks like nothing compared to 15 000 from last year, but we have more and more cases of Indian mutation so politics stopped removing of restrictions and it's vice versa now, I think in autumn, we're gonna be in shits again. Fortunately many people are vaccined so they will have only mild or no symptoms, last fall, it was really bad here.
