Travel Tip: Dobris, picturesque town with magnificent Rococo chateau

Dear Steemit friends and followers,

Welcome to my Travel Tip series where I promote some of the most beautiful places, interesting landmarks and impressive architectural sites of my homeland, the Czech Republic.

Today, I will introduce you to one of the most beautiful little Czech towns, the picturesque town of Dobris.

Located just some 50 km (30 mi) from the Czech capital city of Prague, Dobris is home to approximately 9,000 people. The town was founded in 1252 but archaeological surveys found out that the area has been inhabited since the prehistoric times.

The most important landmark and most visited tourist attraction of Dobris is the Dobris Chateau, a magnificent Rococo chateau surrounded by vast, perfectly maintained English-style as well as French-style parks.

Situated very close the Brdy Mountains, the town is also a great base for outdoor enthusiasts as Dobris´ vicinity is covered with a dense network of excellent hiking and biking trails.
