Czech Republic Travel Blog
Travel guides, itineraries, abandoned places, street art and off-the-beaten-path places in Czech RepublicHello and welcome to our Czech Republic travel blog. You will find all our Czech Republic blog posts in this section of our website.
Maybe you found our Czech Republic travel blog because you are considering a visit to Central Europe, or perhaps you are partway through planning a trip to the Czech Republic. Whatever the reason, we hope we can provide some useful resources and travel tips for the Czech Republic.
Geographically in Central Europe, Czechia (as it is also known) was once a satellite state of the Soviet Union, so has a lot to offer travellers with a keen interest in countries that were behind the Iron Curtain. We haven’t spent nearly enough time exploring the Czech Republic as we should have done. Our list of places that we still want to visit as soon as we can is huge.
Our Czech Republic blog posts are generally aimed at independent travellers and backpackers like us and have a strong focus on travelling around using public transport, staying in budget accommodation and exploring off-the-beaten-path and lesser-visited places.
