The Best Offbeat Travel Experiences

Sharing a Moment with the Children of Terezín: On display at the Ceremonial Hall of the Old Jewish Cemetery are sketches drawn by children held at the Terezín concentration camp, northwest of Prague. These drawings present a touching memoir of the Nazi occupation of Bohemia and Moravia.

Jumping into "4-D" at Orlík: After exploring Orlík Castle, south of Prague, and taking a relaxing stroll through the gardens, you can jump into the fourth dimension, in a variation of bungee jumping. It's quite a pick-me-up.

Walking Through the Satov Wine Cellar: Some of the finest Moravian wine is produced at the Satov vineyard, and at this wine cellar you'll find more than the local product. The cellar's walls are carved and painted in intricate detail with scenes from Prague Castle and Snow White.

Visiting a Large Communist-Era Housing Estate: Anyone wondering how most latter-day Praguers live should see the mammoth housing blocks called paneláky. The size astounds, and piques debate over form vs. function and living vs. surviving.
