Czech Republic

Since time immemorial, the Czech lands have been the crossroads of European cultures. The cultural character of Czech cities, villages and spa towns has always been a source of inspiration to visitors and guests, who come here from all corners of the world. The Czech Republic, the youngest in the family of European countries, was born in 1993 when the Czechoslovak Federal Republic split into two independent states. In 2002, the Czech Republic received an official invitation to join the European Union. The Czech Republic is also a full-fledged NATO member. Even though the Czech Republic's area of 78 864 square kilometers ranks it among small countries, its wealth of natural beauty and monuments of cultural heritage contribute greatly to its global prestige as a major cultural destination. Geographically, the country (population: 10.3 mil.) and its historical lands (Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia) are divided into 14 local administrative units controlled by regional administrations.

There are many places (cities and villages) suitable to be the venues of bigger or smaller congresses, conferences, symposia and meetings in the Czech Republic.
