Pilsen: Bolevec: Vnitroblok Krašovská - Košutka
Pilsen straddles the Mže River in the Plzeň Region, a position that has long connected the city with western Bohemia’s surrounding countryside. Košutka occupies Pilsen’s northern edge, where large residential blocks, local services and arterial streets meet more open land beyond the built-up area. Vnitroblok Krašovská is part of this neighbourhood’s shared inner-block environment, framed by the dense housing typical of the city’s later twentieth-century expansion. Pilsen is internationally associated with Pilsner beer, first brewed here in 1842; its historic centre is marked by the Gothic Cathedral of St Bartholomew, whose tower is the tallest church tower in Czechia. Together, the older core and districts such as Košutka show a city that extends well beyond its medieval streets.

Tucked along the Radbuza River in western Bohemia, Pilsen is a city whose character is shaped by its position at the meeting of four rivers. It is the home of Pilsner beer: the first batch of Pilsner Urquell was brewed here in 1842, creating the pale lager style copied around the world. The Gothic Cathedral of St Bartholomew dominates the central Republic Square, while its tower is the tallest church tower in Czechia. Pilsen also has a strong industrial identity, closely associated with the Škoda works, and its compact centre brings grand civic buildings, breweries and riverside spaces into close reach.

The river valleys of western Bohemia define much of Plzeň Region, supporting agriculture, linking historic towns and carrying the Mže, Radbuza, Úhlava and Úslava toward Plzeň. In the city, the Mže and Radbuza form the Berounka, while wooded highlands extend west toward the Bohemian Forest and south toward Šumava. Plzeň is the regional centre and the home of Pilsner Urquell: the beer was first brewed here in 1842 and gave its name to the pilsner style. Its centre is marked by the Gothic Cathedral of St Bartholomew and the Great Synagogue. Beyond the city, smaller towns, castles and rural roads give the region a distinct western-Bohemian 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.
