There are not many places in Europe that offer as many natural attractions and beauties as Bohemian Paradise (Český ráj). At first glance, this hospitable landscape is scattered with dramatic rock formations, deep shady valleys, meandering rivers and quiet ponds surrounded by forests.
Geologically unique objects such as Bozkovské dolomitové jeskyně (caves), paleontological, mineralogical and archaeological locations and numerous plant and animal species deserve both our attention and our protection. Bohemian Paradise is the oldest protected landscape area in the Czech Republic and in 2005 it became the core of a new UNESCO Geopark.
Bohemian Paradise, this exceptionally colourful mosaic of landscape types, geological phenomena and biotopes, complemented by historic monuments and typical folk architecture, covers almost 1400 square kilometres and is situated between the towns of Mladá Boleslav, Jičín, Nová Paka and Semily.
