Sharing its borders with Poland to the north, Slovakia to the east, Austria to the south and Germany to the west, the Czech Republic is a landlocked country in Central Europe. Water from this location flows to three different bodies of water: the North Sea, Baltic Sea and Black Sea. The country is advantageously located across some of Europe’s oldest and most important land routes.
The Czech Republic consists of almost 80 thousand square kilometres, or roughly 30 thousand square miles, of land. Scenery in the Czech Republic is diverse. The country is surrounded mainly by small mountains and mountain chains. However the majority of the landscape consists of a large plateau and basin called the Bohemian Plateau and Massif. The country’s capital Prague can be found on this terrain. To the east, the region of Moravia is quite hilly.
Characteristic of the panorama are forests and trees. Spruce and fur trees are quite common, especially at higher altitudes. Lower down, these trees in addition to oak, beech and maple can be found.
The Czech government is concerned with preservation of natural heritage. Examples of this effort include breeding of endangered and rare animal species, as well as the creation of nature reserves for significant landscapes. Limited access for tourists in these reserve areas is another step taken to limit destruction of the country’s natural beauty.
With rolling hills and pleasing plateaus, the Czech Republic is a perfect country to serve as the heart of Europe.
