Rokytno: Rokytnice n. Jizerou, Lysá hora
In the western Krkonoše, few communities have a past more closely bound to mountain slopes than Rokytno. This scattered settlement forms part of Rokytnice nad Jizerou, above the upper Jizera valley in northern Czechia. Forested ridges and open mountain clearings shape the terrain, while ski slopes and lift infrastructure around the settlement reflect the area’s long-standing role in Czech winter sport. Nearby Lysá hora is among the principal high points of the Rokytnice ski area. Rokytno retains a dispersed mountain-settlement pattern rather than an urban form, with buildings and local access roads spread across the slopes. The town below provides practical services, but the higher ground gives Rokytno its distinctly elevated character.

Few settlements in the Pardubice Region have a history as closely tied to the farming country of the Labe lowland as Rokytno. The municipality lies in the broad, level Polabská nížina, a landscape shaped by fertile soils and the wider basin of the Labe River. Its setting contrasts with Czechia’s mountain regions: fields, scattered woods and small settlements define the countryside around Pardubice. Rokytno represents the quieter residential and agricultural side of eastern Bohemia, while the regional city of Pardubice adds a major urban and cultural reference point nearby.

Pardubický kraj has been an eastern Bohemian heartland of the Czech lands since the Middle Ages. The Labe crosses its western lowlands around Pardubice before the terrain rises toward the Orlické Mountains and the Žďárské vrchy. Pardubice developed around its Renaissance castle and is associated with the Pardubice Steeplechase, a race first held in 1874. To the south-east, Litomyšl is known for its Renaissance château, inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, while Kladruby nad Labem preserves the stud landscape linked to the Kladruber horse.

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.
