--~@ Summer Holiday- Chech Republic @~--


destination, Chech Republic

early this month, we made a visit to Chech Republic (summer holiday). From Wateringen, it took us approximately 12hrs journey (838km). We drove cross Germany before arrived at Karlovy Vary. the initial plan was we stay in Prague, tapi sebab nak shopping kristal, so..we stayed at Karlovy Vary instead.

stop utk makan and stretching, 15 minutes pit stop.



kami tinggal di Humboldt Park Hotel & Spa. We spend 3 nights there. Puas la shopping. as usual, women have all the fun and the man just watch as the wallet getting thinner and thinner. Cash berkadar songsang dengan masa.

clean air and cool breeze early in the morning before shopping spree begins. (from the 5th floor of our hotel's room)




one thing i really like about this old town is its unique concepts of architecture. It is so beautiful, solitary and romantic. There always couples everywhere with their little honeymoon.

walking alone could makes you feel calm and relax.


between the two phase of an era


Karlovy Vary also known as Carlsbad (native tongue) situated in the western Bohemia, Carlsbad is the largest spa town in Bohemia also famous with its glass and crystal manufacturing. In Carlsbad there were 12 natural warm spring. Most people believe these spring have beneficial power to threat disease of gastrointestinal system. The most important of the 12 warm spring is "vridlo", whose 73 Degree C water shoots up to the height of 12 m.

up the steps and to the left. Thats where 'vridlo' is. Pity, i never had a chance to snap any pictures.

here amongs these pillars, located 6 from 12 natural warm spring with each one of them have different temperature.


Shopping crystals and chandelier in Carslbad is a must. The price is very cheap! cheap! compare to anywhere else. Some shopper like to shops crystal and Chandelier in Poland, but I'm talking about very fine design, hand made and high quality, prominent personalities of Chech glass art.


Apart from its crystal and spa, Carlsbad is also well known for its porcelain manufacture, its Becher liqueur, its wafer, Mattoni mineral water and the local film festival. In fact International Film Festival presents annually here in Carlsbad.

penat shopping, boleh ronda-ronda ngan keta kuda (euro40/hr)

nice weather to walk in the park

kambang si dayang ani, sambil bejalan sambil belagu.

all and all, it was a very pleasant and satisfying summer holiday. and we are planning to have a visit here again next summer if 'other' planned trip cancel of coz. And this time, with more cash and time to spend......~grin


P.S. sapa nak kirim kristal n chandelier?


until then
