Nachod: E65
Few places in the Hradec Králové Region have a history as closely tied to the Bohemian–Polish border as Náchod. The town developed on the long-established route from Bohemia towards the Kłodzko area, and Náchod Castle has stood above the Metuje valley since the 13th century. Reworked during the Renaissance and Baroque periods, the castle remains the defining monument above the historic centre. European route E65 follows the town’s principal north–south road towards Poland, underlining Náchod’s continuing role as a cross-border transit point. Beyond the central streets, wooded slopes and residential quarters climb the surrounding hills, giving this eastern Bohemian town a compact, folded setting.

The Krkonoše Mountains and the upper Elbe define much of Královéhradecký kraj - mountain resorts and winter sports have long supported its tourism economy. On the Polish border, Sněžka reaches 1,603 metres, making it Czechia’s highest mountain, and stands within Krkonoše National Park. The Elbe rises in these mountains before flowing through the region’s lower country. Hradec Králové, the regional capital, combines a historic core with notable early-20th-century architecture linked to Josef Gočár and Jan Kotěra. Farther east, the sandstone formations of the Adršpach–Teplice Rocks introduce a sharply different terrain.
