Karovivali is the oldest hot spring town in Europe, which is both a health resort and a scenic spot. There are countless baroque buildings, hot spring promenades and beautiful valley scenery in the city. The Tepla River passes through the city, and the streets are built along the river. The buildings on both sides are antique and full of Victorian style. Walking on the quaint stone street, you can always see people holding beautiful cups and drinking something while walking. When you ask carefully, it turns out that Czech hot springs are not only famous for soaking in hot springs, but also named after drinking. The best way to drink hot springs in downtown 12 is to walk along the banks of Tepera River. There will be a hot spring promenade on the shore, and there will be a spring outlet in the promenade, so that you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of the city, but also achieve the effect of fitness and health preservation.
Hot spring water tastes salty and fishy, but you can taste different tastes after drinking it for a long time. While walking in the gallery, the tour guide told the history of Karovilli. Since the Middle Ages, it has been a hot spot for the rich and idle people in Europe to receive hydrotherapy. When the Roman emperor Charles IV discovered Kalovilli while hunting in the14th century, by the 10000 century,10000 people had come here for spa treatment, and it had become the leading spa center at that time. Walking out of the hot spring promenade, further ahead is the hot spring landmark of the city, Rudder. There is a geyser at the entrance of the building, which can spray as high as three floors, which is an eye-opener. Entering the hall, there are 14 kinds of hot spring water with different qualities and five kinds of dietetic drinking water with different temperatures of 30 ~ 50℃ for tourists to taste.
Here, you can have a better chance to explore underground hot springs. The narrow tunnels under the city and the places where the spring water seeps are rusty yellow, showing people how the whole hot spring water is provided to everyone through pipelines. Through the long tunnel, you can have a close contact with the Tepera River. At the end of the river is the place where hot springs gush out, where the fog is enchanting, and the plants at the bottom of the river are covered with minerals from hot spring water, showing a rusty metallic texture. Exploring the origin of the city's hot springs is not only interesting, but also the essence of its hot spring culture.
Drinking hot springs and walking by the river in the old city. Although it is a big city, the streets are still blurred. A flock of white pigeons flew over their shoulders and around people. The leaves in the distance are yellow, and people just walk aimlessly and slowly. Life in small towns in eastern Europe is so slow and comfortable that more people can be seen feeding pigeons. Through the old city, came to the new district, gradually lively. The shops on the street are more lively, unlike the old city which is a tourist attraction. Handmade cloth shop, fruit stand, dessert shop, etc. It's particularly interesting to visit.
With fragrance, I fled to a dessert shop, where a cake was specially made, which looked like Poria cocos in China. In karlovy vary, everyone comes here to taste the spring water and this special hot spring cake. A round hot spring cake is divided into two layers with fillings of different flavors in the middle. It's thin and brittle. The cake is a mixture of almond powder, butter and some local spices. Each cake has a diameter of 17.5cm and is printed with the pattern of the most famous geyser in karlovy vary. The store said that this food is very easy to digest, not only suitable for all kinds of coffee and tea, but also the best health food for patients. Because this cake is so famous, it has also caused international controversy. When the Czech Republic applied for the EU's "protection of cultural heritage of origin" for hot spring cakes, the German Bavarian town of Dillingen protested. Nowadays, hot spring cakes can be seen everywhere in the streets of small towns in karlovy vary, and also in supermarkets in big cities such as Prague. You can buy a box of 35 Czech crowns (1 RMB is about 3 Czech crowns), which is the best travel gift.
In addition to the above, you must try Becherovka, a hot spring wine rich here, which is mainly composed of herbs and hot spring water. Locals nicknamed it 13 dietotherapy hot spring. This wine has a history of 200 years. At present, there is a hot spring wine museum in the new city, which shows the wine making process and historical development. You can taste different wines here and buy a few bottles directly if you like.
When you are tired of shopping, enjoying spa in Karovivalli can be said to be the best way to relieve fatigue. However, hot springs in Europe are different from those in Asia. They are truly hydrophilic treatments. Grandhotel Pupp Hotel is the best hotel in Karlovi Valley. During the film festival, it received dignitaries from all over the world. Generally, the whole treatment takes nearly three weeks as a course of treatment. For people who stay for a short time, pure crushing is an experience.
The first is hydrophilic treatment. The huge hot spring pool has no sense of privacy of Asian hot springs at all, and some even stretch your muscles dynamically. It is also a good choice to enjoy a massage in the water-based surfing pool when you are tired. Out of the swimming pool, I went to the salt cave to sit for a while. The soft music was accompanied by the ding-dong sound of the dripping stone cave, and I was in a completely relaxed psychotherapy, and I had an unspeakable experience. Finally, I rushed to the massage room excitedly, and was greeted by a handsome male doctor. I have never tried a male doctor's ten fingers flick, but I can rest assured if I do it occasionally. Male doctors are more energetic, their fingers are in place and they feel more professional. A course of treatment lasted for nearly 2 hours, only to feel stretched and refreshed, and the fatigue of the journey suddenly dissipated.
Karovivalli's hot spring experience is novel, but if you have time to visit the surrounding towns again, there is another kind of comfort waiting for you to satisfy.
Mariansky has always been my yearning place, but seeing her in the autumn afternoon makes people feel a little more sad. The town in autumn is covered with a golden coat, and the rainy climate in autumn in the Czech Republic adds a bit of chill to the town. The unique temperament of small towns in eastern Europe and the more lively pace of life than Karovivalli make people addicted to wandering in streets of all sizes. When you come to Mariansky, you still have to look at the hot spring promenade here. At the end of the hot spring corridor, you can actually drink different hot spring water from four small towns in this area. I tried it, but I still prefer Karovivalli's spring water, which tastes softer. Of course, as a hot spring town, hot spring physiotherapy is also a project that cannot be missed. Compared with other places, there is a hot spring SPA here. Wearing clothes, sitting in the enchanting fog and inhaling hot spring oxygen is like being in a fairyland.
When dusk slowly invaded Mariansky, I got lost in the street and tasted the illusion of the town alone in the layers of light and shadow.
Carat? Ter Teplá town is extremely quiet and peaceful. If you pass by in a hurry, you may not be noticed. But after careful exploration, this town is different because of the monastery of Prokhlidka. This monastery covers a large area. It can be seen from the old murals of the monastery itself that the ideal city was once within the walls of the monastery. At present, in addition to the exhibition area, the monastery also retains facilities such as churches and libraries. Visiting on rainy days in autumn always reminds people of vampire stories in Europe. Inside the huge church, it is solemn and silent, and the cold weather makes people feel that the atmosphere is particularly strict. However, if you look carefully, colorful windows made of glass and all kinds of exquisite appliances are often attracted by many tiny details when you stop and stamp your feet. Go to the library, a library with nearly 30,000 books. Like many European movies, books are piled up on the roof, which is more than 10 meters high, which is very spectacular. Unfortunately, it is impossible to take pictures in the temple, so we can only leave enough imagination space for everyone to experience it slowly in the local area in the future.
Sek Town, Franti
The town of Seck in Franti is quite famous among the hot spring towns in Europe. Many old people come to recuperate and rest, and people who receive treatment here usually stay for a few weeks. Of course, in addition, it is also famous for treating infertility with hot springs. Sculptures symbolizing parents and children can be seen everywhere in the town, and even bronze statues of children who urinate. It is said that the shiny place where the bronze statue was touched is the mark left by everyone praying for the children. When you come here, you can also get a glimpse of the trend of seeking children in European cultural traditions.
Classical and Romantic Lokot
Among many small towns in the Czech Republic, the classical town of Lokot is probably my favorite. The whole town is surrounded by a strong romantic atmosphere. If you take your lover to the Czech Republic, except Prague, you must not miss this place to experience the romance of Bohemia.
In the Middle Ages, Lokot was once a fortress to enter the kingdom of Bohemia. This small town with a population of only 3,000 is also called "Elbow Town" in Czech. She is high above, surrounded by a moat that flows through the town on three sides, protecting the castle and residents like an elbow. It is Rocktown's classical romantic temperament and well-preserved medieval architecture that attracted the cast of 007 casino royale to shoot here. Walking on the stone road in the town, surrounded by antique features and gorgeous colors, the castle stands in the center of the town. The quiet town is not disturbed by too many tourists, just waiting for the right person to tell the quiet romance.

Haibu, a small town: Haibu gives me the impression of Lokot, but I regret that I can't read the city carefully because I only stayed for a short time. There is the largest church in the Czech Republic. When I came, the Christmas market was being arranged in the city square, and the atmosphere of the whole festival was shrouded in it. If you have time, please look for the romance of this city.
