Dear Steemit friends and followers,

Today, I would like to take you to a place that every history fans would love, the famous Wallachian Open Air Museum.

Located in the town of Roznov pod Radhostem in the Eastern Moravian Region of the country, the Wallachian Open Air Museum is a unique, open-air museum dedicated to displaying and preserving culture and traditions of the Wallachian Region.
Founded in 1925, the museum offers its visitors a unique insight into the traditional life of the Wallachian people, their crafts, folklore and much more. The museum is particularly famous for being home to hundreds of traditional timber structures and picturesque wooden houses dating back to the 19th century.

Visitors can even taste some traditional Wallachian meals and try old trades and crafts typical of this area. The museum is open all-year-round and the entrance fee ranges from 40 to 200 CZK (1.5 – 7 EUR/USD) depending on what parts of the museum complex you want to see.

Once you get enough of all the history and picturesque architecture, you can head out to nature to have some outdoor fun as the museum is surrounded by the Beskydy Mountains, one of the most beautiful mountain ranges of the Czech Republic.
