    I loved my trip to the Zoo. It's huge and very well maintained. The vegetation is wonderful with lots of old and tall trees.
    Animals seems happy.
    You can even feed some goats with pallets (provided by distributors) and observe from very close some guinea pigs.
    It's a lovely place to spend an afternoon.

    Interesting tour with guide. I wished I understood Czech, though. The guide seemed to make some great jokes which I missed out on. Great examples of old machinery. Seems like they just walked away from the mine and left all the machines and equipment at the end of the socialist period.

    So glad that we unplanned got there! And there are a few reasons to go the city hall.
    1) building itself is nice outside and gorgeous inside!
    2) modern comfortable elevator;
    3) very friendly staff speaking different languages:
    4) in-price guide, who tells everything about the city, ask any questions, gives advices about places to see, cafes to go etc.
    5) reasonable price (60 czech kron/person = 2,5 euro)
    6) bird-view on the whole city!
    In nice weather I would stay there for hours.

    Ostrava lures by its name but the town will surely not knock you out. You can afford a pleasant walk along the Ostravice River but that's it - one of the few attractions.

    A well placed shopping centre with all that you may need and expect from such a place. Convenient parking facilities if you are coming by car.

    It was very large and very run. It is a fresh water pool that is filtered, so the water is sweet. There are many different depths for all swimming abilities. You can bring towel, snacks, sunscreen and enjoy the day. It has bathrooms, some snack booths to purchase food. It was the best way to stay refreshed in the hot summer! It is only open in the summer. Check the website for most accurate hours.

    We've visited the place with our little kids many times. It's big enough, with a lot of models and there's always a lot to do and see. The only thing I'd change is the scientific part and the look of the models. It's been known for decades that dinosaurs - at least some of them - had feathers, but the guys behind the franchise don't seem to be up to date with science. Also, some of the descriptions contain mistakes.

    Interesting excursion to coal mine and lecter about mine rescues. The tour in mine shows how people exploited coal in past and now. Rescue part is also interesting.

    This was 5th center we visited so far. Great experience. Well organized. Not queues in front of each experiment. The most impressive experiment for me - the magnetic fluids. Really WOW. The "children world" in the same building also recommended for children below 6. Also worth to mention the cafeteria with very extended lunch menu.

    Forget about the cafe, it is your average Joe - tiny, impossible to reach and in all the possible ways, nothing special. BUT, it has a view, "catwalk" outside the tower that are worth all the effort to get there. It is super complicated - you need a ticket, you need someone to come and pick you up (and take down as well), and the whole process takes time.

    But then suddenly you are on top of Ostrava, in a ex coal and steel manufacturer in a super cool building. Enjoy the views, walk and the fact that the name, Bolt, comes from Usain Bolt himself.

    Near village Polanka/Odrou railway crossing and station starts from road No. 478 natural path - from the beginning next door ponds, than path nearly disappears for soon joins wider path with small bridge over local stream. After bridge You can turn to the left to meadows and forest or go straight ahead throw forest. In the end You will reach river Odra and its meanders. All that way is in natural reserve so picking up flowers is forbidden. On the river You can see some birds ducks, swans, herons eat. The best time for visiting is early spring or late autumn.
