Děčín

Sitting at the confluence of the Elbe and Ploučnice rivers in North Bohemia, Děčín is a photogenic Czech town with a walkable centre, a castle, and a zoo, ringed by dramatic sandstone mountain terrain on multiple sides. Bohemian Switzerland National Park and the Elbe Sandstone Mountains lie close by, and the city sits near the Czech-German border, historically significant as a rail and river transport junction between Prague and Germany.
