The region has long been favoured by the monarchy and aristocracy of the Czech Republic, predominantly due to the holistic qualities of the spring water the rises to the valley floor. Established by Charles IV in 1350, the architecture is revered, while the town also hosts a prestigious annual international film festival.
The restorative water attracts visitors in search of wellbeing from all over the world, and a spa escape can be combined with some stunning championship golf, thanks to layouts like those of the Royal Golf Club at Marianske Lasne, Cihelny and Karlovy Vary. Not far from the German border, the area is rich in history and culture, and makes for an amazingly interesting and relaxing golf and spa holiday.
