Last Updated on 08/02/2025 by kami Kolin, located in the center of the Czech Republic, is such a charming town, yet it’s always overlooked by tourists going on a day trip from Prague to Kutna Hora. Every time I passed the town by train (and there were many times since it is on the main train route from Prague to Poland), I promised to visit Kolin soon. Somehow, it took me some twenty years to eventually go there, and I was enchanted right away. Kolin is one of those lovely Central European towns with pastel houses, winding cobbled streets, and some amazing gems hidden with centuries of history ..read more

But I don’t mind that at all, especially since I visited four new countr ..read more
