Very beautiful place, serene and amazingly well maintained. Hardly any traffic, a walker's paradise. So much natural beauty enhanced by fascinating architecture. Those fountains are an interesting feature. The scenery from the top is so good. Loving this trip.Thank you for taking us there.
He was in the spa part of the town, along the Teplá ("Warm") river. Cars are mostly forbidden there outside the few people who live there, hotel guests and employees. That'S also the reason for the many souvenir shops and other tourist traps. Residential parts of the town look quite differently.
Same here. I left when I was 10 years old in 1968….and recently went back and met up with my grade 3 teacher…she was still working part time in the same school I went to in Tuhnice. I showed my daughters the underground entrance to the school where we would all go during practice atomic attacks..with our assigned gas masks on. My daughters were absolutely stunned by the beauty of the place…and at one point in the spa district they all turned to me..threw their arms in every direction…and simultaneously asked” “why did you ever leave… …to go to London Ontario of all places?”…..and as I looked around, I had no good answer.
Always love your soundtracks Gabriel. I don't know if I missed it in an earlier vlog, but fyi Karlovy Vary means Charle's Bath's. It is named after King CharlesIV who discovered the springs in 1325. And treated his injured leg with the spring water. In German it is Karlsbad.
Next you could also visit Marianske Lazne Marienbad and Frantiskovy Lazne Franzensbad. There you will find more hot springs and have completed the so-called "spa triangle" of the Czech Republic
colonade used for basically so that people who are staying in Karlovy Vary for a week or two could partake in all the 'healing' springs regardless of weather like rain etc... and to make it accessible to all ages, wheelchair etc... in style
Wow Karlovy Vary is quite big. Again beautiful music to match the majestic colonnades. Gorgeous city, nice meal at the end, sometimes it’s just nice to splurge occasionally. 🍷😊❤️
For next adventures in the Czech Republic I would recommend moving over to the wine region of Southern Moravia! Start with the capital Brno (it has some amazing gastronomy scene and a better ossuary than Kutna Hora) explore some wine villages, maybe visit an abandoned gothic monastery Rosa Coeli, visit the beautiful Lednicko-Valtický areál and visit the Salon Vín in Valtice (basically an exhibition of the best wines Czech Republic can offer). Maybe also head over to Mikulov. Happy travels Gabe!
Agree with South Moravia - very picturesque region. My favourite places over there are Brno, Pálava (vineyards, easy hikes), spectacular wine town Mikulov, Lednice and Valtice chateaux.
Hi Gabriel, A very picturesque town with many activities to do around the town. In these types of restaurants with this new vogue cuisine, the food seems more decorative than appetizing, it's nothing like just going into a regular restaurant and ordering a heartier meal.
This is why I like restaurants like Lokal, Plzenska, the Pilsner Urquell restaurants, basically restaurants which have tank beer will have good food to accompany the beer.
Coming to Vary when there is the International Film Festival in the summer is fantastic especially for for movie lovers. The vibe is top. Hopefully you did not miss Loket near Karlovy Vary.
Bit of language detective work I did here: at 12:28 it says the same (or similar) word “vtstup” on the building as on the sign that you didn’t know the meaning of by that water fountain. Assuming on the building it means entry/entrance so on the sign probably “no entry/entrance” due to the hand and stop symbol. Thought Id share 😂👌🏻

Gabe you blew my mind for the first time ever and I've been watching you for years and been wowed out many times. This is an incredible find. Do the young people speak English there?
Maybe you were puzzled why there's a billboard in Cyrillic on that street. Karlovy Vary is a hotspot for wealthy Russian citizens and oligarchs. At least they were before the war. Many of them left or were forced to leave the EU.
Yes, Russians like spa towns in Eastern and Central Europe very much. Tradition goes on from at least 19th century when Russian aristocracy and even Tsar family had holidays in spa towns, that's why it is an Orthodox Church in Karlovy Vary. It is similar in the spa town of Rogaška Slatina, Slovenia (formally known as Rohitsch-Sauerbrunn in Austria-Hungary) - before the war in Ukraine, Russians were maybe even the most numbered there as tourists and many real estates and hotels were bought and owned by Russians, with many cyrillic script on tables all around the town because of that. As Russians were also always great numbered in Montenegro (especially Budva), too, that's why maybe Karlovy Vary also inspired to be the film setting for Hotel Splendide in Casino Royale, James Bond (although it is labelled as Montenegro there, but is filmed in Karlovy Vary, Grandhotel Pupp).
Wow what a beautiful area. Thank you for sharing with us. I am thinking that the hot spring with the no hands warning board is probably for 2 reasons 1. Water is hot and 2. Water is probably recycling around so they don't want people getting sick who drink the water from people who might have unclean hands.
A local here. No, the water is not recycling, the fountains are there literally so people can drink the water for its healing effects. Yes, even the 70 °C water, I did it many times. That sign was most likely forgotten there after some maintenance in the area.The colonades were specifically built for the spa guests so they could walk around in all kinds of weather, dring the water and mingle. There was even a period when the local doctors prescribed their patients to drink more than twenty litres of the mineral water a day... Which had some obvious side effects.
Kronach in northern Bavaria, 156 km away from Karlsbad is a really nice town with a gorgeous castle. And this weekend there is the annual Festival of lights. Maybe a possible next destination?
Karlovy Vary was already in my itinerary, but it wouldn't be my first choice. Since you went that direction, Pilsen would be a better choice, especially since you like beer so much. I'm not much of a drinker, but I'd still want to visit Pilsen. It's right on the way to Český Krumlov. And don't forget to stop in České Budějovice, to see the Budweiser Brewery, the Museum Of South Bohemia, the Iron Maiden Pub, the Black Tower, and the churches in the old town. There's also a planetarium, if you like this kind of thing, and the prison is in a beautiful castle-like building, with turrets and all. Now, Český Krumlov has the famous castle with a baroque theater (one of only four left in Europe), a bear moat and a bear zoo. There's also the Medieval Torture Museum, the Monastery Museum, the Church of St. Vitus and the Graphite Mine to visit.
Well…you would be disagreement with Goethe and Beethoven….Who both said that Karlsbad was one of the top three cities if they had to choose to live anywhere. Peter The Great actually bought a house there. Mozart visited…and Karl Marx had a tenement just up from the colonnade. That doesn’t even consider Charles the IV…and all the movie stars going back to 1960 when The Karlsbad International Film Festival started taking place..with people like Gregory Peck and Robert Redford made their pilgrimage. Pilsen is a semi heavy industry town with little charm…as is Ceske Budejovice. Cesky Krumlov is awesome and an UNESCO site…but it it’s pretty much like being in a diorama…and the torture museum….clearly you have not seen it..because it looks like something from a traveling circus. Sorry to be this harsh..but it’s the truth.
@@zeroceiling Well, like taking in consideration things from people born in the 18th Century (Goethe and Beethoven) was something rational. Or 17th Century, in Peter The Great's case. It also depends on the age. My mom would love to do nothing all day in a spa town, taking long baths in smelly hot water. Actually, she's done that for decades in a spa town where my grandfather was born. It was never my thing. Now, actors go where the action is. Cannes also has a film festival and there isn't much else to do there. Monaco, Monte Carlo and Nice, spitting distance from Cannes, have a lot more to offer, a lot more fun stuff to do. I've never been to the Czech Republic, but I've lived in France, and I've been to those cities I mentioned above. The Monaco Oceanographic Museum pretty much beats everything else in the world!! Also, it's my personal taste. I'm 54 and I would love to see the Torture Museum, and I don't care about taking long hot baths in stinky water. Maybe older people do... I don't drink beer or whisky or wine, but I love to visit breweries, distilleries and wineries. And castles, and museums, and towers, and ancient ruins, and old churches, and beaches, and caves, and cable cars, and diving, and skiing, and motorcycle rides, and, of course, eating typical foods. I will visit Karlovy Vary more for the architecture, but I didn't see much to do besides walking around the city. It's a place to rest, mostly. Sometimes, the "touristy towns" are a lot more fun than "spa towns" (maybe always).
When we were driving in from Nuremberg on the bus…my daughter put up her feet…put a book across her face and said: “don’t wake me up until we get to Sudetenland”…
Var in Czech means generally process during which water state changes to gas state, so it kind of doesn't make sense like "Charles's Boiling" but everyone can probably guess that it's related to hot water springs.
Unfortunatelly, this unusual freezing arctic weather is not normal at this time of year in the Czech Republic or Central Europe. All fruit trees were in blossom because of the previous warm spring weather and now it's reported that 100% of all fruit trees in the western part of the Czech Republic are destroyed due to freezeing temperatures.Hope you will get a better weather in the following weeks of your travels around Europe.
Thanks for this great footage of Karlovy Vary! Unfortunately I found them a bit too late, but anyway - here my offer to You: If You're still in the Karlovy Vary region and interested in talking to a guy who's living in this town for almost 30 years - although not Czech - just leave me a comment here.
Mermaid in Czech is mořská panna, rusalka is more like forest ghost-like female wraith which attracts you to go there and then she will drown you in a pond or something. 😀
@@Pidalin has right and rusalka is a part of Slavic mythology, a water sprite, made immortal with the opera named Rusalka by Czech composer Antonin Dvořák.
@@Ojstra Yes, but without that opera, I would probably never heard about some rusalka, slavic mythology is not that known here, I would say that most of people know more about nordic mytholic than about slavic. Instead of rusalka, most of people would probably say lesní víla or something like that. Most of these mythological beyings are known mainly thank to operas, songs or mandatory books which you have to read in school, but it's not enough to know slavic mytholihy, I know more from reading and playing Witcher and from Legendy Polskie short stories. 🙂
@@vitalitihomirov5781 "but a sea is something exotic" I think that here in Czechia like 150+ years ago, most of people didn't even know what sea is. 🙂 When hussite troops returned from baltic beaches, it had to be story for several generations that they've been there. 😀 And our biggest lake is a puddle from yesterday rain. 😀
This looks similar to Vrnjacka Banja 🇷🇸 where I went in 2020. Followed Gabe to SerbiA and even lost my passport so I couldn’t return to purposeless life in San Francisco. Grant Co.fax, our health Czar, shut everything down and my neighbors all dutifully wore their masks 😷 out with their newly acquired rescue dogs. So glad Serbia allowed me to enter as a Usa 🇺🇸 though they did close restaurants on weekends. Is there less cigarette smoking in Czech Republic 🇨🇿? That’s what will keep Serbia 🇷🇸 out of EU 🇪🇺 .
I would say that more than half of people smoke by what I see around me, it's terrible bad habbit here, everyone has to constantly go smoking every 10 minutes, a lot of companies are asking if you are smoker and when you say yes, they don't want you. 🙂 Thankfully, smoking was banned almost everywhere in public space like 10 years ago and it's much better now, you can go for a beer or coffee and you don't smell like some junkie and don't cough when you sit in a put or restaurant from that smoke. People don't remember how terrible it was and idealize that time, but when you visit a place where it still is like that, you have to admit that it's much better when it's banned.
@@Pidalin Most of my friends who smoked now use IQOS. In Prague you will see more tourists smoking than locals. I like the smell of cigarette smoke, so don't mind.
@@stevemcgowen IQOS and similar shits are still shits, my eyes hurt when someone is smoking it in room, it doesn't realease just water steam as some people believe, I can feel it in my eyes and in my neck when 100 people around me at concert smoke these things. I really don't understand how can someone smoke classic cigarettes, there are types of smoke which are really aggressive that it causes pain in eyes and coughing immediately - the worst is burning plastics and cigarette smoke is on second place and some idiots breathe it on purpose, I don't get it. 😀
If he would talk to people he would be way more enjoyable to watch and way more successful; am I right? I can understand being shy, but if you're going to travel the world, what is the point without trying to meet new people or learn about different cultures? I thought the best things about traveling the world is meeting new people and learning about different cultures? This channel is just basically one of those walking channels that walk on streets of a popular place.
Gabriel, the weather is acting weird! In UAE Flood in desert! Lots of rain around the World. It is written, if we disrespect God who Created Sun, Moon, Rivers! This is the result!!!
I would recommend travelers learn some basic words whenever they go someplace. Entrance, exit, names of toilets for men and women, please and thank you, how to order beer. The essentials. Also how to pronounce them.
@@stevemcgowen Not a bad idea Steve, especially if you frequent traveler in a particular country. Nonetheless I’d still carry Google Translate. Using your phone’s camera, it’s quick & easy to translate signs. You can even have a conversation with someone who speaks another language besides English.

Visited Karlovy Vary back in 2022 and still remember it vividly. One of the most cleanest, beautiful and charming cities of Europe.
I’m impressed with this town and I had no idea it was so beautiful, the details, the mini hot Springs, historical buildings, what a place!

This is a ‘experimental’ restaurant. Small portions, high prices, foam garnishes. I think they have a set menu mostly, at fancy prices.
