german_eagle Says: Frantiskovy Lazne - as all the spa towns I know - has a number of beautiful gardens and parks where you can stroll and enjoy the beautiful nature. One of them is the city park (Mestske sady / Kurpark). In that English style park you find a nice cafe with terrace, the...
german_eagle Says: The full name of the church is: Roman-Catholic church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Ugh.Emperor Franz II himself gave permission to build this church in 1812. The works started in 1815 and were completed in 1820. This church is one of the few absolutely empire sacral...

Restaurace Gruzia: Hearty Bohemian Food
