Set against the scenic backdrop of the confluence of the Ohře and Teplá rivers, Karlovy Vary is a historical spa city nestled in the Karlovy Vary Region of the Czech Republic. Named after Charles IV, the Holy Roman Emperor who founded the city, it has preserved its rich cultural heritage and fascinating architecture linked to its spa roots. This became international recognition when it joined the transnational UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 2021. From its humble beginnings, Karlovy Vary has grown into 15 distinct city parts, including an exclave, Cihelny.

Its economy thrives upon industries ranging from food and beverage, with the largest employment generator being Mattoni 1873, to renowned glass manufacturing, such as the Moser Glass brand. The city is also famous for Becherovka, its local liqueur, and Karlovarské oplatky, or Carlsbad wafers. The city's network of buses and cable cars efficiently connect these diverse areas, with Karlovy Vary Airport providing international access to the city, which is approximately 106 kilometres west from Prague. With over 80 thermal springs boasting temperatures up to 74 °C adding to the appeal, Karlovy Vary is an unmissable holiday destination for spa enthusiasts worldwide.

When to visit Karlovy Vary

The appeal of Karlovy Vary is perennial, but the city truly comes alive in September. With fewer tourists, yet still bathed in the warm glow of the sun, the city is at its best during this month. Visitors can immerse themselves in its charms without the crowds of the peak summer months, yet still enjoy the vibrant atmosphere sparked by the lengthening days.

That's not to say other times of year don't have their own charm - July, for instance, promising the highest temperatures and the longest daylight hours. However, do note that the wet season in Karlovy Vary typically coincides with the summer months. For a personalised forecast, our website provides a wealth of information to help you find flights, book hotels and plan your itinerary, alongside climatic data, packing tips and suggestions of nearby places to explore. Rally your loved ones and pack your bags, as a rejuvenating holiday in Karlovy Vary awaits!
