• Going to the lake: Stríbrny (silver) pond. This is the most popular place that citizens of Hradec Kralove love to visit during the summer.

But not to worry now cause you know exactly where to go to get those beach vibes.

• Running away: if you are someone who has tired all the activities mentioned above and really need a break from Hradec Králové, then you can just take a train or a bus to the neighboring towns and to Prague or Brno. Traveling from HK to other towns is pretty easy, straightforward and cheap. Students also get a student discount on using public transport to places.
