Ostrov nad Ohři

प्रकाशित: 12.06.2017

The first attempt to reach Ostrov from Kadaň ended on Saturday at the Kadaň bus station. As it turned out, the addition in fine print does not mean 'except Sunday', but 'only on Sundays'. So we spent the rest of the Saturday in a forced but relaxed manner in Rooseveltovy sady (a park) and with another stroll through the old town. We stayed overnight again by the Ohře river, just a bit closer to the bus station.

On Sunday, May 28, 2017, I used the remaining time to visit the cemetery in Kadaň (a tip from mom), where especially shelf-shaped urn graves stood out. Quite a space-saving final resting place... crazy.

According to the schedule, the bus to Ostrov arrived. Around 1:00 p.m., we reached the royal city of Schlackenwerth, which welcomed us in a chic residential area in the style of Socialist Realism (see Wikipedia). After a brief immersion in the 1950s of Eastern influence, we headed towards the old town. Right on the market square, I enjoyed Vepřová Pečeně s Knedlík a Zelí (roast pork with dumplings and sauerkraut). A beer rounded off the meal.

Thus strengthened and newly motivated, I experienced the old town, the castle park with the baroque pleasure palace Letohrádek, and the grounds of the Piarist monastery. In the afternoon, a walk led us to the Ostrovské rybníky (Ostrov ponds), but there was no suitable place to sleep.

Since there was no bus to Karlovy Vary in the early evening, I decided to look for a place to spend the night at the other northern end of the city. It turned out that the idyllic spot was a popular recreational area, so I set up our tent only after dinner and decreasing numbers of visitors.

The second town that more or less chance led me to also surprised me positively (probably mainly due to my previous ignorance of our eastern neighboring regions). I increasingly like Bohemia.
