One cannot overlook the luxurious building of Červená Lhota. It is the only structure in the area with such typical red façade. It is located between the cities of Tábor and Jindřichův Hradec. The picturesque environment, the setting in a beautiful natural spot, the water surface spreading around the castle in which its silhouette is reflected as if beckons you for a visit. Seeing it for the first time leaves a lasting impression on everyone!

Historic piece of interest - the château as you don´t know it

The château originally didn´t bear its current name. In the beginning it was not considered to be a château, but rather a stronghold called Jenczenslag and had a white colour. Later on, it was called Lhota, Nová Lhota or Kábova Lhota. The current Červená Lhota appeared as a local name only at the end of the 16th century. In this century the stronghold was rebuilt into a château of magnificent Renaissance style.

A fairytale setting

In addition to the legendary musical fairytale of Goldilocks from 1973, where Petr Štěpánek as Prince George fought for the hand of Jorga Kotrbová as Goldilocks, other fairytales were shot here, such as the Lost Princess, About Beauty and Good Fortune or Princess and the Pea. The romantic spot was frequently used in other films, too, whether just as a studio backdrop or a couple shots taken of the surrounding area.

What beautiful secrets does it conceal?

If you long to have a look at the luxurious aristocratic private apartments, we recommend the main exhibition on the first floor. This represents authentic interior of the last owners, Schönburg-Hartenstein princes. You will be able to look also into their rooms under the eaves. During the high season there is also an exhibit in the cellars with many remarkable areas recessing directly into the rocks.

The hill nearby is adorned by the Holy Trinity Chapel, also in renaissance style, which fascinates by luxury interiors full of original preserved illusory paintings, a beautiful wooden ceiling symbolising heavenly Jerusalem.

And remember to take a boat ride, like George in the Goldilocks fairytale!

Perhaps you would not think of just setting off to Dubai for a skiing and snowboarding trip. This megalomaniac city created from a desert offers unforeseen and unexpected possibilities. Whether you prefer luxury hotels, shopping sprees, relaxation on the beach, or whether you admire architectural achievements, don´t hesitate to also use the option of skiing at an artificially-created hall, Ski Dubai. In the years 2016 and 2017, it was recognised as the best ski resort in the world. 

Location

The great hall, Ski Dubai, is located on the Sheikh Zayed Road near the Jumeirah beach and is a part of the business centre of Mall of Emirates. It was built in 2005 by the development firm of Majid Al Futtaim, which is at the moment engaged in the building of a modern Ski park in Shanghai.

Luxurious Ski Dubai - outside over 45 degrees, inside below the freezing point

The unmissable Dubai construction which looks like a metal tube is 85 high and 80 metres wide. In the building of 22,500 m2 in area, you can find artificial snow aplenty. There is no shortage of ski-lifts, comfortable 4-seat chairlifts, incredible five downhill trails of various difficulty, the longest of which is 400 metres long and elevation of 60 m.

Who will have had enough of skiing can enjoy the bobsled track or a smaller slope for rafting on tyres in the area called Snowpark. As a luxurious bonus you will be able to see the ice cave or ice sculpture of a dragon.

Fun with penguins

You can also exchange greetings with a cute penguin colony of Gentoo and King Penguins who are to be found in the Snowpark. The entry is not free of charge, you can choose from many advantageous packages. Do you wish to try diving with the penguins? Prepare AED 1,365 which is around CZK 8,000.
