When to go to Český Krumlov?

A single loop of the Vltava wraps almost the whole way round Český Krumlov, leaving a knot of gabled houses and cobbles inside the bend. The castle above holds one of the best-preserved baroque theatres in Europe, machinery and painted scenery included, and the Painted Tower gives the view over the roofs. Everything is walkable, and most of it uphill.
