Routes and attractions
If you plan to see as much as possible, then, we strongly recommend you to leave the city as soon as you rent a car in Avis. Otherwise there is a risk that you will not leave Prague at all.If you plan to explore the western area – there is a choice between the mineral water of the world famous resorts of Karlovy Vary or Marianske Lazne, and the legendary Czech beer in Pilsen. In the latter case, you will have the opportunity to visit the Brewery Museum, the Great Synagogue and the "city under the city" - the Pilsen historical dungeons.
But if you are not thirsty, go south along the route Konopiště - Hluboka nad Vltavou - Cesky Krumlov.
Konopiště.
Konopiště Castle is a must-see for any visitor: towers, drawbridges, narrow windows and centuries of old history. It is noteworthy that one of the owners of this magnificent structure was the very same Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the assassination of whom became the reason for the beginning of the First World War.Hluboká nad Vltavou

Brno.
This city is very similar to St. Petersburg, because the inhabitants of Brno consider their city to be the real capital of the Czech Republic, where the estate of the Přemyslidis, the Czech royal dynasty, was located.The main city of the South Moravian Region is quite a bit inferior to Prague in the splendor of its architecture. For example, The Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul can be admired for hours, in any light.
Stay here for a day or two and try traditional Czech cuisine: roast goose with red cabbage, baked pork rudders, and goulash with potato dumplings.
You can return to Prague driving along the E50. But if you have a little time left, take a small detour to stop in Kutná Hora.
Once one third of all European silver was mined here. The only requirement was an ordinary shovel: they literally were walking on the silver ore.
The main sights are the Cathedral of St. Barbara and the Sedlitsky church with the largest ossuary in the Czech Republic.
