When most travelers think of Czechia (or the Czech Republic), Prague steals the spotlight. But venture a little further east and you’ll find Moravia—a land of vineyards, hidden caves, elegant mansions, and stories that blend history with legend. In this episode, we head to Brno, explore a centuries-old synagogue, sip local wines, wander through mysterious underground caverns, meet Romeo and Juliet in an unexpected setting, and step inside a stately Moravian mansion. Join us as we uncover the side of Czechia that goes far beyond Prague.
