Cheb will charm you with its historic atmosphere and unique landmarks. On King George of Poděbrady Square, you’ll be greeted by the iconic Špalíček—a unique cluster of medieval merchant houses with typical half-timbered walls and narrow streets, which has preserved its original layout and the charm of the past to this day.

Not far from there stands Cheb Castle, the only Staufer imperial palace in the Czech Republic, towering above the Eger River. Krajinka—a modern park on its banks—invites you to relax, offering pleasant facilities for cyclists, views of historic landmarks, and space for relaxation.
