A UNESCO fairy-tale town wrapped in a bend of the Vltava.
Český Krumlov looks unreal: a medieval town curled inside a loop of the Vltava, crowned by one of Europe's largest castles, its red rooftops and painted tower straight out of a storybook. Two and a quarter hours from Prague, it's the most photogenic small town in the country.
As a Czech studio we're at home in Krumlov and shoot there often. The whole town is a set — every lane, bridge and terrace works — and it's a favourite for both proposals and elopements.
Krumlov trades city scale for pure fairy-tale intimacy: the painted castle tower, the Cloak Bridge over the rooftops, and river bends that frame the town like a painting. Unbeatable for couples who want a storybook proposal.
