Jičín – the town of fairy tales

Each year there is a traditional parade of fairy tale characters in costumes through the Valdice gate to the centre of the town. Jičín is close to the famous rock town of Prachov – Prachovské skály (“Prachov Rocks”) are definitely worth seeing! One of the typical symbols of the Bohemian Paradise is the ruin of Trosky castle dating back to the 17th century. The Bohemian Paradise also includes castles and chateaus, e.g. Humprecht, a baroque chateau, a gothic castle of Kost as well as picturesque valleys such as Plakánek and sandstone rocks.
