can you show us some hidden gems of Královec next time you are there?
:-D
Good one 😀
Cant wait for Beer Stream 1
Get lost
9:55 as a Swiss, I can say, you can do whathever you want with you cheese, as long as it involves cheese, we are happy. haha
Ye, sometimes our stores/restaurants here do weird stuff with cheese aswell, when autumn/ winter season start, companys tend to put raclette on everything, especially fast food companies.
recently even saw a raclette Pizza in a local retail company.
I am so happy I discovered this channel! I've been learning bits and pieces of Czech for a while now and I am so happy to understand some of the words and phrases that pop up in these videos. Also it makes me fall more and more in love with a country I have never been to. The Bohemian Switzerland seems absolutely beautiful! Hope to be able to visit soon ❤️
I hiked here. It's a must see. I love Bohemian Switzerland and Saxon Switzerland parks. Although my trip was in where the Lion the Witch and the wardrobe winter forest scenes were filmed
honza pri 6:40 do 6:46 zadne Evidencne cislo si ne vycenzuroval len predné :D
You forgot to black out the rear licence plate at 6:46 😅
Good to know. Thank you. The bracelet scene reminds me of my trips in London.
Cannot wait to visit Czech Republic again! Great video!
10:56
We literally been making these here in Ukraine, you can find a them near big highways a lot, never knew this!
I hope they work even against current vehicles in your situation. 🙂
Who cares
yep Pravčická currently closed because it´s like walking on a moon dust. Even better with full bunker gear on. xD
the mini bunkers are awesome and cute
Greetings from Sulawesi
Just giving you a heads-up that you forgot to censor your numbers plate at the 6:46 minute mark.
One of my great grandfathers worked in that concentration camp that was shown here.
I took the tour in 2005 and I was absolutely blown away. There is so much more to show about it, than he was able to talk about in this short video.
One information I do want to share: Not all of the tunnels a open to the public. Because the tunnels are so huge, in majority it contains the national fuel reserve of Czechia.
amazing discovery ! thank you Honza and Janek !
If I remember right they use to paint lot of those bunkers with "radium" (same stuff in watches, etc) .. make them glow like crazy
I have a vacation in a week and I will be in this area! You couldn't surprise me more, and I absolutely must see the Ju-188 factory
Love the nice Volvo!
Hi from Switzerland.
I very much love what you guys do to that cheese :)
06:51 The Germans weren’t the only ones building things secretly underground during the war. In the U.K. just a few miles from the city of Bath is a couple of small towns/villages called Box and Corsham along the railway line that crosses from Bristol to London via Bath. In Box is a famous tunnel built by Isambard Kingdom Brunnel, a Victorian era civil engineer infamous in the U.K. for his engineering wonders during the industrial Revolution.
Anyway, during the war within the tunnel a new section of railway was built out leading to an underground city of tunnels with factories making munitions for the navy as well as aircraft for the war effort. The new railway junction within the tunnel was utilised to both supply the city with everything it needed from the Bristol docks but also to conceal this fact.
A train carrying materials loaded up in the docks at Bristol from ships coming from across the Atlantic would head towards London, upon entering the Box tunnel it would proceed down the secondary railway meanwhile another train would pass out of the end of the tunnel. That way any German reconnaissance aircraft monitoring the tunnel or any German spy watching on the ground would see a train go in one end of the tunnel and out of the other and not suspect a thing!
The workers were brought to the factory in blacked out buses and two escalators meant for Holborn station in London ended up at the factory for it was the easiest way to get 25K people out reasonably quickly. After the war it was repurposed as a nuclear bunker for the British government and it has a huge kitchen full of 1950's era appliances that have never been used. The access tunnel into the underground complex was at the eastern end of Box Tunnel and they have two railway platforms within the complex. There's also 7 miles of conveyor belts. These days the whole place stands dormant and disused.
I recently spent a week on the German side of these mountains. I would have loved to visit the Czech side, but the only thing I knew was that everything around the border town of Hřensko (which is quite a tourist trap) was closed due to the recent forest fires. Now I have some information where to go next time. Díky 😎
Hi Janek
I have been enjoying your videos for a while now and finally at the end of octobre I am going to visit prague. There's only one problem. I wanted to visit the blue King Kong statue but the internet says it seems to have dissapeared. Do you know where I can find it?
Thx!
Awesome share and channel friends see you again stay safe 👍👍
Wow thank you Honest Guides, beautiful content :)
I’ve been excited for Spaceman of Bohemia ever since I heard about it a few years back. It’s so cool that you encountered the film crew!
Very nice places! Thanks for this discovery
Vesna Vulović from Serbia a woman who survived a plane crash
like always great episode with a lot of good information. a lot more to explore in Czech Republic
Really loved the video 😊
your smile is infectious!
Why did you mask the license plate on the volvo in the front, but not in the back? 😅
Now you made me hungry!!! Love this video!
I was off put by him not holding his fork and knife correctly. He needs to learn some etiquette and how to eat properly.
This was a beautiful video!
FANTASTIC video !!❤
Great video...thanks
this was a great episode
Could you show us around Kralovec?
I am gonna go there next year to cycle. Thank you for your recommendations!
Your videos are always interesting.Keep it up guys.Greetings from Serbia.
Loved the video.
The National Hockey League was in Prague this week. Did you get a change to go see the game? Tomas Hertle is a local player and I understand he got a very enthusiastic reception. He was all about town.
wow. amazing!
watched videos so long that saw new upload today.
Nova Perla ❤
Was so surprised by this place when I was coming out of the forest on a long distance bike tour
To be honest... Guys have not mentioned one extremely important thing.
A large part of the national park has burnt down this year.
And by the way, there is another tourist attraction in this park: a boat trip through a sandstone canyon. May be a tourist trap but worthy. Well, not right now. Also that part has burnt.
Maybe that is the reason he doesn´t mention that?
There fires are the reason why the area around the (big) "Pravčická brána" is closed. Everything shown in this video was not affected.
@@alexj9603 Yep, some parts have not been affected.
@@siriusczech Because of honesty?
The video was probably created before the fire. Perhaps they just decided to publish it without a change. May be with another part coming with explanations in near future. Let's wait.
@@pejsekocicka probably not. That's why they mention it is closed now
2AB 0921 Licence plates...
How about top 10 scams in Královec?
I was there in June based on your recommendations from a previous video and will definitely be coming back next year to see these new recommendations 👍🏻 keep up the good work guys on and I really hope people visit CZ country and not just Prague🙏🇨🇿
How do you get around all these places? Is it basically car only, or is there some trains or buses?
I visited Pravčická brána some years ago and I liked it a lot! I would definitely recommend visiting it when you are close to there. Greetings from he other Switzerland!
If you don't like dwarf you can use midget. Plates of food look nice. One countries regular homegrown meals are exotic and unusual for somebody from another part of the world. Always nice to try something different. Local is the way to go, fresh from the farm to the table.
You blocked your front licence plate, but I had no problem reading the rear one @6:46 .
Thanks for this. I adore Bohemia. Every place no matter of size in Bohemia is just too beautiful.
12:23 agreed, absolutely beautiful
Nice hidden gems 🎅🏼
I got so excited when you said that you were in Switzerland, but hey - close enough!:D
konečně sem našel tenhle kanál
Nice
Lol, I was in bohemian switzerland today, it was great :D
We walked to the natiral sandstone bridge/arch
(I was there with a tour, I would not had the time to find the gems anyways)
Chuchle 2022!
Many of those bunkers are for sale, by the way.
Can you make a video with recommandations for the nearby citys of Decin and Usti nad Labem? That would be interesting as well. I want to go to the area soon.
'Czech' out the aquaduct, you could say 😁😁😁
Another Czech word for a dwarf is Patrik Nacher
🤣🤣🤣
There is so much interesting stuff to see in CZ ♥
Please guys, make a video about Chomutov.
Especially when he combines it with Litvinov! 😉
I'd say "gnome" would be a little bit more apt of a name for those trpaslík specimens. Anyway, another cool episode, Honza & Janek!
Im swiss and i aprove of this message
I visited this park last summer! well, visited... There was unfortunately a big forest fire which was very sad to see. Everything was closed and the town Hrensko(where I was) got covered in ash.
Your Govt should pay as you and your team is promoting tourism in your country
What is the link please for the tour of the underground factory?
I wish Peter Lindgren and Honest Guide would collaborate.
to be honest, you can be the best tour guide. lets travel and show us the world ^^
There are
public transportation to move between trails or a car is needed?
hi link for the factory is missing :)
It's not, he has a google map linked, with all places!
not missing anymore i guess
Another interesting and excellent video. Just a small thing: "Hidden Gems" / "Secret underground..." ? In what way is it hidden or hidden? Usually a word used in yt-videos discribing places where the youtuber is not so familiar. Bud hidden? Secret? No way! Actually a lot of people living here. There is more than just the Charles Bridge.
The Czech word for dwarf = trpaslik (trĭpęstŭkŭ), from Proto-Slavic *tri + *pęstь + *-ikъ, literally "three fists tall” :)
Funny. In German we have the word "Dreikäsehoch" which literally means "3 cheese high". We use it (jokingly) to describe children.
@@alexj9603 And there is the popular Jewish surname "Dreyfus" which is Yiddish/German for "3 Feet" though some dispute that and claim Dreyfus is based on the old Latin name for Trier
nice iam czech and i didnt know how the word originated
Wondering, if it's available and safe to visit there now? Thought the forest fire in summer was serious
anyone else just learn what those big hunks of metal we see in war movies are???
💙💙👍👍
Man, your videos are great. If you're ever in Istanbul, we'd love to see you. There are people who can rob you down to your knickers. It's the biggest city in Europe. It's like a paradise for thieves.😂😂
@11:10 ... and contact lenses.
02:14 more like a diver's helmet
What about Ardspach?
Would be good to know how it is to "navigate" through those places for someone that doesn't speak Czech.
love this dude, very cool seeing other countries (Indiana, usa here, hi!)
Ooo
Czechs gave the world not only hedgehogs and Semtex. but also contact lenses and sugar cubes :) oh and the word ROBOT :) so not only destructive things :)
One of you Czech babes kissed Adam Sandler and he turned into that frog. 😮 One other great Czech contribution to the world was Pilsner. 😉
6:46 is missing a license plate blur
Your rear license plate is visible at 6:46 ... just so you know!
The elves are creepy😰
2:00 it should be called "The Pinky". It's kind of shaped like one too.
at 6:46 your license plate is visible 😅
i will be visiting prague in less than two weeks, i'm correct when I say that masks are no longe required right?
not needed, maybe in hospitals
Nobody is wearing masks for like 6 months, but who knows, maybe they will make it mandatory again, but I don't think so, there is no reason for that when hospitals are not full of people with covid like in the past.
masks are not required right now but just in case of emergency have one in your pocket some places might have requested them to enter also in case of medical emergency they are needed in hospitals
@@tomatom5496 Thanks!
@@wachyification Thanks!
Spaceman of Bohemia is being turned into a movie? With Adam Sandler????? The book was weird and interesting, but I just can't imagine what it would be with Adam Sandler in it. I'm skeptical.
you blurred your front licence plate but not the rear one...
Thank you Honest Guide. I really wish the country of my ancestry did not feel the need to name places after other places. If it were up the me, these designations such as "Switzerland' or "America" would disappear from the literature. Doesn't this bother anyone else?
The dreadful thing was that Czechoslovakia as it was at that time was basically handed to the Germans on a sliver platter by the British at the Munich conference in 1938 and much to Hitler's annoyance. The Czech delegation was shut out and forbidden to participate and the fate of their country was decided by foreigners. Hitler wanted a violent invasion of the Czech state and was cheated out of it and so the violence he loved so much was unleashed on his next victim, Poland.
Its easy to see your car plates ;/
