The Bohemia / North Bohemia/Liberec region

You have been to Prague and enjoyed your visit! Maybe you love the classical Czech composers Bedrich Smetana, Antonin Dvorak and Leos Janacek - who based their music and operas on the history and beauty of the Bohemian countryside and the lives of Czech people. So here is your chance to visit a new region!

Make JABLONEC NAD NISOU your base to visit PRAGUE and other beautiful surrounding regions.

Express coaches leave for Prague every hour from the Jablonec Bus Station, the journey takes 1 hr 10 minutes. And also they run frequently back to Jablonec from Prague - Cerny Most Metro - into the evening.

From Cerny Most Metro you will reach the Prague Centre in about 15 minutes by underground.

So within 2 hours you will be in the centre of Prague from the Jablonec apartment, i.e. door-to-door.

The town of JABLONEC NAD NISOU (on the river NISA) lies in the NORTH BOHEMIA, some 110 kms north of Prague.

THE CLIMATE: Cold winters with snow and frost, followed by dramatic and wonderful springs. In April weather can be changeable - from warm during the day to chilly at night. May tends to be a lovely month in North Bohemia. Followed by usually hot summers from June right up to mid-September. Colourful autumns, often with showers. Cold, winter spells and showers often start in November. Snow usually starts in earnest from December and stays for good till February or March.

There are several beautiful castles within a short driving distance of the Jablonec region "JABLONECKO" as it is called in Czech (information will be provided).

Jablonec is surrounded by mountain resorts and centres which have Observation Tower restaurants and Ski lodges. In the winter they offer excellent skiing facilities and ski schools.

Guestbook for Pink Street House

1. "Thank you so much for letting us use your charming apartment for a week at the beginning of May 2005. We experienced all types of weather, from a small heatwave to a snow shower. The spring in the Bohemian mountains is more dramatic than in Denmark, with fast-running brooks and rivers, filling up with the melting snow. The town is really charming, with such unusual architecture. DENMARK (two middle-aged ladies)"

2. "Thank you for letting me and my husband use your apartment during the hot summer for two weeks, whilst we were visiting our German friends in Jablonec. We are both in our 80's but we had no problem climbing up the stone steps to 1st floor. The area is very charming and peaceful, we enjoyed the walks to the town and to the woods. GERMANY (elderly couple)"

3. "We have thoroughly enjoyed our summer holidays in your charming house and loved staying in the studio apartment with it's wonderful views. It was so peaceful there. We did a lot of walking to the mountain tower restaurants where we were rewarded wth wonderful mountain air, good food and drink . We were lucky with the weather at the end of August, it was sunny but not too hot. The Museum of Glass and Costume Jewellery in the town is worth a visit. People can learn a lot about the glass manufacturing history of this charming region. ENGLAND - 22 / 23 yr female students."

4. "We have used the studio for our New Year's 2008 winter break and attended a ski school on the Severak Hill in the Jizera Mountain. Your friendly taxi company collected us daily and delivered us safely back home. It was only about 30 minutes drive to the skiing resort, so it was worth it. We also visited the University town of LIBEREC on a very cold January day. The LIBEREC REGIONAL TOWN MUSEUM is wonderful, with so much information and art exhibitions. ENGLAND (engaged couple in their late 20's)"
