Vlasim: Jana Masaryka - Komenského
Few places in Central Bohemia have a history as closely tied to a noble estate as Vlašim. Vlašim stands on the Blanice River amid the rolling farmland of the Czech interior. Its historic focus is Vlašim Castle and its extensive English landscape park, arranged with avenues, ponds and ornamental structures. Jana Masaryka and Komenského belong to a built-up centre where apartment blocks, family homes and everyday services meet. Beyond the centre, the town soon opens onto cultivated fields and low wooded ridges. The meeting of an aristocratic park, a working town centre and the Blanice landscape gives Vlašim a distinctively Central Bohemian character.
