Nové Město nad Metují is best known in Czechia for its Renaissance castle and arcaded Husovo Square. The town occupies a rocky promontory almost encircled by the Metuje River, giving its compact historic centre a clearly defined setting. Founded in 1501, it developed as a planned town, and the square’s long row of burgher houses with covered arcades remains its civic core. The castle was rebuilt in Renaissance form after a 16th-century fire and its gardens are associated with architect Dušan Jurkovič. Beyond the centre, the Metuje valley leads towards the wooded foothills of northeastern Bohemia.

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.
