CZ, Kamen Castle
Near Pelhrimov on a cliff, there was built a Gothic castle in the half of the 13th century. After centuries of renovations and additions it remained on its place until these days. It offers its interiors to visitors and people who want to get married. While entering the castle, you walk through a small garden and aboretum. The flora there grew around cliff, thus it seems as the castle grew up from there especially when flowers blossom. In the attic, there is a museum dedicated to single track vehicles

CZ, Zvole: Sikland Amusment Park
Amusement complex of three compounds is to be found between Zvole u Bystrice nad Persntejnem and Dolni Rozinky. You will spend most of the time in Sikluv Mlyn, a western town. There you can see animals, real cowboys, a snake woman, military, fishermen, water park and other attractions. Wood breaths on you on the area of 5 km². Western buildings and rodeo would take you to the 1930s America. Not even the accommodation is a problem there. Another stop is Draxmoor haunted castle and nearby crocodille farm, there you might touch your first crocodille in your life. The adventures are to be experienced only in the summer.
