Holašovice

Holašovice (45 km north of Český Krumlov): If you enjoy visiting picturesque villages, Holašovice will enchant you. Here you find, tucked in the tranquil countryside, a tiny town where time seems to have stood still. This cluster of 19^th-century peasant homes is a fine example of the charming, whimsical style of architecture characteristic of many of the villages in the southern part of Bohemia, where baroque features such as gables, white stucco ornamentation, and articulated rooflines enhance the farm houses. Holašovice is so special that UNESCO has chosen it as a protected town under the World Cultural Heritage.
