Český Krumlov is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Czech Republic that is absolutely picture perfect. It looks like a place ripped right of the pages of a fairytale, and the best part is, it is not too far from Prague, so it can be easily tackled as a day trip.

There are several options you can choose to reach Český Krumlov, but we chose to go by the RejioJet Bus because of the rave reviews online. It was certainly a comfortable trip to and fro Prague, and you can watch movies in the bus as well, though I was very much distracted by the multiple rape blossom seas as we travelled to Český Krumlov. Do make sure to purchase the tickets in advance though, for they will sell out fast on peak seasons.

Being the second most visited place in Czech Republic after Prague, it is no surprise that it is inundated with tourists like me. But the crowds cannot erase the magic of the medieval town.

The Castle Tower is the star attraction of this town, and is said to have inspired many great poets and authors. It is easy to see why, for it looks every bit as magical and romantic as a Disney princess castle. Indeed, it seems rather like how the mermaid’s castle will look like, with the coral shell paintings on the walls.

It is quite a long climb up the tower, but there are multiple levels where you can view other things and shop for souvenirs before you reach the top, so it is quite a leisurely and enjoyable climb. At the top of the castle tower and along the high points of the castle, you will be rewarded with a view of the entire town, the winding Vltava river, and sprawling greenery that stretches on for miles
