We were taken here for lunch on Boxing Day. The restaurant is located up a mountain from a narrow road from Usti and it was just about full when we arrived, managing to sit at the one free table left.
The food is typical Czech. I had the Fried Cheese whilst Mrs FB2000 had a chicken dish ( roulade ). Both were less than 90 CZK but the boiled potatoes and sauces are charged extra. A half-litre of Gambrinus was 28 CZK whilst the Grog was 34 CZK.
The portions were large and filling, and the service was fine. Also, the toilet were clean.
A very pleasant lunch in an interesting location

Litomysl Castle is one of the major attractions of this pretty town. The entire guided tour takes about 50 minutes.
The castle is small but very much fun. There's also a cafe inside. Play the piano which is at the entrance (for free) & entertain others!

One from the best what you can see at this part of the Czech Republic. Many interesting craft sides,mostly from local sources,paradise for children and foreign visitors. Friendly staff and a lot of space for car parking. Short distance from main square in Letograd (cca 300m).

It's the cottage where painter Svabinsky spent many holiday seasons and produced many pictures. The staff (I guess mainly students) spoke good English and was very helpful (on top of the written guide in English), and the trip to the cottage (either bike or hike or bus & walk) is also very nice.

This Renaissance castle from the 16th century is maybe little known but it's surely worth visiting. The castle has lovely facade with sgraffitos and a courtyard with a Fountain. It's quiet place to spend a moment (not much tourists go to this castle) and look at the architecture. Unfortunately I wasn't inside of the castle but I enjoyed the visit with my family. There is also parking lot for cars near the castle.

Tak trochu mi vyrazila dech - není příliš velká, ale obrazy známých i méně známých autorů, rozhodně stojí za vidění. Pokud si chcete vše pořádně prohlédnout, počítejte nejméně se dvěma hodinami. Určitě se tam ještě vrátíme.
