Chartres is a great day-trip destination for those visiting Paris. An hour’s train ride from the City of Lights, Chartres’ main highlight is its magnificent cathedral (itself a UNESCO World Heritage Site).
Prague (pronounced and spelled Praha on local maps) was a city I’d wanted to visit for almost 2 decades, ever since the Iron Curtain collapsed at the hands of the Velvet Revolution. Finally I was there.
My first view of the southwestern Czech town of Český Krumlov (pronounced CHESS-key KRUM loff — from now on I’ll just call it Krumlov, as the locals do) was from Castle Hill. It was enchanting.
