Student life is wonderful, yet equally filled with the necessities of study, tests, exams… After a well-completed semester, there is nothing better than a well-deserved break. So why not take this chance to hold your break time in the Czech Republic?
Nightlife is an inseparable part of student life. Lying as it does at the heart of Europe, the Czech Republic offers dozens of highly diverse venues presenting concerts in the widest palette of styles imaginable. Whatever plan may strike your fancy as to how to spend the night, there will always be some place in the Czech Republic where an event is being held to match your wishes.
Would you like your break to be something completely different? Something unusual and extreme? The Czech Republic offers an ever-growing list of possibilities for fans of extreme sports.
The Czech Republic is a land with a great cultural tradition, and each year thousands of cultural events of all possible types take place. There is a wide range of festivals and workshops, as well as hundreds of exhibitions at shows and museums.
In recent years in particular, there has been a boom in open-air festivals, dozens of which are held in the summer across the Czech Republic. Outdoor podiums play host to hundreds of Czech and international musicians in all genres.
Thousands and thousands of kilometres of hiking and cycling trails await. Put on your boots or mount your bikes for a unique view of central Europe’s most beautiful landscapes!
You will certainly be pleased to hear that many student discounts are available in the Czech Republic. Practically all attractions, whether museums, galleries, castles or palaces offer students discounted admissions costs, with savings of up to 50 %. All that you need is to show a valid ISIC card...
Not only does the Czech Republic have very inexpensive transport, but it also offers a range of accommodation of exceptional quality at surprisingly low prices. Visitors can select anything from the most basic hostels to luxury hotels.
The last frontier still left untamed and untrammelled is the time of night. You too can rank among the first colonisers of the darkness – while the rest of the world sleeps, gradually come to see the other, nocturnal side of the Czech Republic. Only this way can you known the unknown and add to your visit to the heart of Europe a pinch of true adventure! On offer are many night tours of cities, castles, chateaux and even zoos and museums.
Beer is regarded by the Czechs themselves as their national drink – whether dark, light, mixed, wheat… There are over 470 different types of beer in the Czech lands. In all Czech restaurants, beer gardens and clubs quality beer is an essential part of the experience. The very best types are the world-renowned light and dark lagers. The atmosphere of a typical Czech pub and the sense of a relaxed conversation among friends are essential for the beer consumption ‘ceremony’.
Thanks to its geographical position at the very heart of Europe, the Czech Republic is a place where Europe’s historical forces have literally crossed at all points. The Czech people are suitably proud of their past, meaning that historical celebrations, fencing tournaments, even re-enactments of medieval castle sieges or great battles enjoy great popularity.
