In the most entertaining and fascinating pastime in Grades-Klolov, I would call a walk through his cozy historical center. After all, this is the most real adventure that transfers you for several centuries ago. I don't know how to whom, but in my opinion, the heart of the city is simply impregnated with some special atmosphere of friendliness and love, so it pulls to armonize a cup of coffee, sitting somewhere on a cafe terrace or just on a bench and sit, enjoying good weather and Watching the running past by tourists.
But if you distract from such enthusiastic experiences and memories and return to prosperity, it is worth noting that in the city there is something to do and besides acquaintance with his historical sights.
First, you can climb to the viewing area White Tower (Bílá Věž) so that from the aerial view to admire the panorama of the city, the picturesque Orlitsky mountains or just to listen to the ringing of one of the biggest bells in the Czech Republic - Augustine. It is easy to find a tower - it is located right in the center of the city, next to the town hall and the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit, and the climbing on a narrow screw staircase at a height of about 70 meters (the height of the tower of 71.5 meters) will definitely become one of the most memorable events on your trip. Yes, and pay attention to the arrows located on the clock tower - the hour arrow is longer than the minute, and this is a truly rare phenomenon.
In this city, you can not only enjoy its old architecture, but also to do, as it turned out, amazing pedestrian walks among greens. An ideal place for this will be one of the parks of the city, such as Iraqsov Gardens (Jiráskové Sady), Zizkovy Sady or Smikovy Sady. Although most of all walking can be found in the first of the mentioned parks. Probably, this is due to its good location - at the Cape in the confluence of Elba and Orlice, as well as a special atmosphere, soaked calm and harmony. Personally, I was struck there the air - such a clean and surprisingly invigorant. And it is possible to take a walk to the embankment and make an entertaining promenade there. True, the best time for this will be evening, when the embankment is flooded with a soft light of the backlight of the cafe and shops. And for romantics, it will certainly be an unforgettable walk along the evening river on a motor ship under the sounds of music.
If you do not imagine your life without bike , then there is a pleasant news. Gradean-Klolov is sometimes called "Little Holland". And all because here it is really a real expanse for cyclists - everywhere you can find bicycle paths, the number of bikes themselves is really impressive, and herself a walk in a two-wheeled friend can show the city itself completely on the other side.
Grades-Klolov will delight its guests and a rather rich cultural life. Among the institutions that can be visited for the sake of enriching their soul - Clickspes Theater. (Klicperovo Divadlo), known far beyond the limits of the Czech Republic due to its progressive and extraordinary productions, as well as Puppet Theater "Drac" (Divadlo Drak), in which you can not only visit the idea, but also look into a very unusual and highly entertaining museum of dolls and a puppet workshop. If you are lucky, you can also get one of festivals held in the city every year. The most famous of them are theatrical and jazz. Unfortunately, I could not get on any of them. But everything is ahead.
Yes, do not forget about the possibility of tickling your nerves. After all, there are plenty of seats in which you can add adrenaline. Here you already like what. You can go on a hike to the Orlytsky Mountains located near Goldez Crawn or simply work out on the equipped climber, and you can shoot in a dash or ride skate in a special park. In general, the main thing will want.
Travelers with children can be invited to visit the local aquapark.
There you can not only swim in the pool with artificial waves (which, by the way, catches the rare design), but also soaring in the hot pool or jacuzzi, and also look into the SPA center. For the kids there is a smaller and safe zone, but the guys are older and adults can have fun, having listed with an impressive water slide with a length of about 80 meters. By the way, in the summer you can buy at all in the outdoor pool, which is not inferior to the indoor version from my point of view.
I do not know how to whom, but I was very impressed by this small, but friendly city. I was pleased with my slowness and tranquility. And fascinated so much that he wanted to return to learn as much as possible not only about his entertainment, but also about all the sides of life.
