While many customers send flowers to Prague – understandable given it’s the biggest city and at the heart of the rapid business growth in the Czech Republic – our customers are asking us to deliver flowers to numerous different locations. So, we thought we would take a look at some of the major towns and cities and some interesting facts about each.
Plzen
This western Bohemian city is the fourth largest in the Czech Republic, and is known worldwide as the home and the namesake of Pilsner beer. The town is a vibrant economic center, home of breweries like Pilsner Urquell, and the well-known University of West Bohemia, the nation’s leading law school.
Olomouc
A tourist hot spot, Olomouc was originally created as a Roman fort during the imperial period. Olomouc Castle dates back to the twelfth century and the lovely Saint Wencelas Cathedral is also a popular attraction, as is the city’s art museum and the spectacular astronomical clock.
Ostrava
This large industrial city is a popular destination among those sending flowers to the Czech Republic. The Lower Area of Vítkovice is a unique industrial complex dating back to the first half of the 19th century, which provides an insight into the tradition of iron production in the area. The Vítkovice Iron Works used to belong to the Rothschild family of bankers.Karlovy Vary. This hot spring town has been believed for hundreds of years to have healing waters that can clear anything from poor digestion to brain tumours. The town is still grand and picturesque however, and the spa is still open over six centuries after opening and still claims miracle cures for dozens to hundreds of ailments.
Cesky Krumlov
Cesky Krumlov is famous for its large Bohemian Castle. It was created in the late thirteenth century, when the region was owned by the Bohemians, as a trade stronghold. The location along a natural crossing of the Vltava river made it a perfect place to build. The town’s appearance is little changed since the 18th century and the buildings have been well maintained and restored.
Brno
Brno has a beautiful historic centre featuring historic sites from the eleventh century, a large number of Baroque and Renaissance buildings. The dominant feature of Brno is a stone promontory called Petrov and the gothic Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul which is built on it. The city is the second largest in the Czech Republic and the cultural and administrative centre of the South Moravian Region – meaning lots of people today send flowers to Brno.
