Description
During this tour you will visit the beautiful town of Plzeň, which is situated in west Bohemia. As early as since the 13th century, when it was founded, it played an important part as a trade centre at the crossroads of routes to Nuremberg and Regensburg. In 1599 and 1600 the town worked as a temporary seat of Roman emperor and Czech king Rudolph II. Among major local enterprises is the engineering company Škoda and the world-famous Pilsner Urquell brewery. Visit the place which gave birth to a beer legend, a beer that now represents 70% of the global production today.
