Czech & Slovak Republics - North & South Moravia (Chapter)

This chapter contains the North Moravia and South Moravia chapters from Lonely Planet's Czech & Slovak Republics guidebook.

With marvellous wine-tasting, surreal cave systems, a jumping summer festival season and the lively city of Brno, it's no wonder South Moravia is so beloved by seasoned travellers to the Czech Republic. Meanwhile, its lesser-known northern neighbour boasts folk traditions and outdoor fun aplenty.
