The Czech Republic Beyond Prague
Season 5
Episode 507
Few travelers venture beyond Prague to experience the Czech Republic’s many cultural riches and offbeat delights. We’ll get you started with a whirlwind of Art Nouveau, local pub music, stinky cheese-tasting, river-rafting, and peat-bathing in places like Olomouc, Moravsky Krumlov, Trebon, and Konopiste. We’ll also tour a remarkable memorial to the Holocaust in Terezen.
