For a lot of people, Ostrava in the Czech Republic still carries the label of an ugly black city full of coal and smog.<\/strong> Luckily, the truth is somewhere else entirely. This underrated destination has cleverly turned its raw industrial past into its biggest draw, proving that industrial heritage can be incredibly fascinating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a city of huge contrasts. Right next to giant rusty furnaces you’ll find modern glass-fronted caf\u00e9s and lots of greenery<\/strong>. In fact, Ostrava is one of the greenest cities in the country. Anyone who comes here without prejudice usually leaves having seriously reshuffled their ranking of favourite Czech cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve put together the best of what to see in and around Ostrava<\/strong> \u2014 from industrial furnaces and viewpoints to parks, plus tips on where to grab a great coffee and where to stay. Ostrava will probably surprise you more than you expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
