Along the Morava River at the edge of the Slovácko cultural region, Veselí nad Moravou is a town whose character is shaped by its lowland waters and the Baťa Canal. Built in the 1930s for transport and irrigation, the canal now carries leisure boats through a landscape of riverbanks, locks and open South Moravian farmland. Veselí belongs to Slovácko, an ethnographic area known for its folk music, traditional costumes and wine-growing customs. Its position near the Slovak border also places it on a long-established route through the Morava valley. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of South Moravia.
