New direct flights to the coast of Morocco

On April 1, one of the largest low cost airlines, Air Arabia, launched a new airline between Prague and Casablanca - a dynamic and multicultural city that has always been attracting mainly business people.

The flights will be departing twice a week, on Monday and Thursday at 8:30 PM (arriving in Casablanca at 11:35 PM), and returning on the same days at 2:50 PM (in Prague at 8:40 PM).

What is it about Casablanca that's so appealing?

Casablanca is located in Morocco on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean and right in the center of the most popular tourist area. Thanks to this, you can also visit other nearby interesting and luxurious destinations in addition to Casablanca, such as Mohamedia (30 km away from Casablanca), Rabat (90 km) or Mazagan (120 km).

Why are tourists drawn to Casablanca? There's a lot of business going on here, but that's probably not what you'd fly in for. Above all, visitors are curious about the luxury Hassan II Mosque, which was inaugurated in 1993. It is interesting to note that the whole nation contributed towards its construction. It cost more than one billion DEM and was built to withstand even the most devastating earthquake.

Prices for return tickets to Casablanca start at 4 570 CZK.

Hluboká Castle

There are many beautiful castles and chateaux in the Czech Republic, but few that offer such a picturesque atmosphere, courtesy of the Schwarzenberg family magic, as Hluboká Castle. Some might say it has been "pirated from England", but if so, it is a masterful forgery.

Originally a gothic guard castle, it was rebuilt into a Renaissance chateau in 1563.

That is when the modern history of Hluboká Castle began to be written. One of the particularly significant periods started when Jan Adolf II. and Eleonora Schwarzenberg became the owners of the castle. Influenced by their travels around England, they had it transformed into the style of Windsor Royal Castle. The new buildings were built in the style of Tudor Gothic, and the main designer, Franz Beer, really outdid himself with the complicated interiors and exteriors. The chateau is surrounded by a park in a luxurious English style, situated on a hill above Vltava in the town of Hluboká nad Vltavou.

The interiors are richly decorated with carvings and lined with fine wood.

All movable furnishings are in luxurious quality, from painting decoration to paintings, chandeliers, stained glass or ceramics from Delphi. The largest room is worth seeing, if only for its breathtaking cassette ceiling. Visitors might also take interest in the armory or the chapel with a large late Gothic ark.

A stroll through the park will put you in a distinctively romantic mood.

In addition to the greenery, visitors can find here unique buildings reminiscent of the Orient that evoke the atmosphere of faraway lands. The water surface reflects a lookout tower - the Minaret. The whole complex is carefully maintained, to the point where you could easily imagine that a graceful rider on a proud horse or a luscious girl with her alabaster face obscured by an umbrella might appear here any moment. Time stands still in Hluboká; the castle is forever frozen in the state of its greatest fame.

By the way, did you know that one of the most famous Czech fairy tales - The Proud Princess with Vladimír Ráž as King Miroslav and Alena Vránová as Princess Krasomila in the main roles was filmed here?
