Know more about your day trip
Karlovy Vary is renowned for its healing thermal springs, elegant 19th-century spa architecture, and colorful baroque buildings lining the Tepla River. This historic spa town has attracted royalty and celebrities for centuries seeking the therapeutic benefits of its mineral-rich waters.
There are 12-15 active thermal springs in Karlovy Vary, with temperatures ranging from 30-73°C (86-163°F). The most accessible are located in the historic colonnade areas, where you can sample the mineral water using traditional porcelain drinking cups.
Visitors traditionally drink the thermal water from special porcelain spa cups with a spout. You can purchase these decorative cups as souvenirs and use them to sample different springs throughout the town, each with unique mineral compositions and health benefits.
The Mill Colonnade is Karlovy Vary's most impressive structure. It is a neo-Renaissance corridor stretching 132 meters with 124 columns. It houses five thermal springs and offers a grand promenade experience with beautiful views of the surrounding hills.
