Description

Botanicus Ostrá is a unique destination about 50 kilometers east of Prague, Czech Republic. It combines a historical village, herbal gardens, and a craft center. Some crafts you can watch the artisans practice and can try yourself are blacksmithing, pottery, candle making, soap making, and more. You can even take home the items you create as souvenirs or presents! There’s also a marketplace where you can buy natural products like soaps, oils, and herbal mixtures made on-site, which would make great presents for your loved ones! The village includes traditional food stands where you can enjoy medieval-style dishes, often prepared with ingredients from the vast gardens. The gardens showcase a wide range of herbs, medicinal plants, and flowers.
