Litovel
Built around a crossing of the Morava River, Litovel grew into a royal town in the Haná region of central Moravia. The river divides into several channels here, giving the compact centre an unusually close relationship with water and earning Litovel the nickname “the Venice of Haná”. Přemysl Otakar II granted the settlement town status in 1252. Přemysl Otakar Square forms the civic heart, edged by townhouses and the Renaissance town hall with its landmark tower. Beneath the square runs the Nečíz, a covered branch of the Morava. Litovel is known across Czechia for its brewery, established in 1893, and stands between the fertile Haná plain and the floodplain forests of the Litovelské Pomoraví Protected Landscape Area.

Litovel lies along the Morava River, whose several channels thread through this Haná town amid the flat, fertile plains of central Moravia. Water has long shaped its identity: one branch of the Morava passes beneath the town hall, while bridges and riverside streets give the compact centre a distinctly waterside character. The nearby Litovelské Pomoraví Protected Landscape Area preserves floodplain forests and wetlands along the river. Litovel is also known across Czechia for its brewery, founded in 1893, and for the traditional food and farming culture of the Haná region.

Olomouc Region occupies a varied inland belt in eastern Czechia. Its terrain moves from the fertile Haná lowlands around Olomouc to the forested Jeseníky Mountains in the north, where Praděd reaches 1,491 metres, the highest summit in Moravia and Czech Silesia. The Morava River provides a north–south thread through the region and has long supported settlement and farming. Olomouc, the historic capital of Moravia, retains a notable baroque core; its Holy Trinity Column is inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Smaller towns, agricultural country and mountain communities give the region a distinctly changing character.

The terrain of Czechia ranges from fertile lowlands in southern Moravia to mountain ridges along the northern frontier, giving this Central European country a distinctly varied geography. The Vltava runs through Prague before joining the Elbe, while the Krkonoše form part of the border with Poland and include Sněžka, Czechia’s highest mountain. Prague’s historic centre, with Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, reflects the city’s long role as a political and cultural centre. Beyond the capital, Bohemia is known for spa towns and brewing, and Moravia for wine-growing traditions.
