Known by the German name "Budweis" in the 19th century, the south Bohemian city of Ceske Budejovice has been a center of brewing since the 13th century. The original inspiration for the American version, Budwar or Budweiser beer remains one of the most popular in the country.

Buses and trolleys link areas, and cycling paths run through the city.

NamEsti Premysla Otakara II

This cobblestone market square, one of the largest in Europe, is lined with magnificent baroque buildings and 18th-century arched and barrel-vaulted arcades. The Fountain of Sampson stands in the square's center.

Reviewed By Andrewdonaldson - Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic

This is a great town square, it's within walking distance to great restaurants, parks, the winter stadium with ice-skating as well as a ten-minute walk to a mall with cinema's etc... You won't find McDonalds or KFC here, they're also walking distance if you need them, rather this square remains a very authentic Czech hub, which is widely utilised by the locals and not as much of a theme park as many other city centres. There are regular markets held in and around the square and they have a fantastic Christmas market too. If you're with children, there is a great large play area in the park, less than 5 minutes walk away, next to an indoor and outdoor swimming pool with water slides etc... for the summer. There are outdoor movie theatres, the planetarium and of course pubs with beer gardens, serving local and international cuisine and loads of Czech beers. Language can sometimes be a challenge for more complicated conversations, but I find that most Czechs in the hospitality industry will understand food and drink orders and the younger the person, the more likely they are to have a good grasp of English as there are now a whole host of English Language schools in the area. Overall the City and the Square are off the main tourist routes, but all the more authentic for that.
