How to recognise Czech Republic from the road
Drives on the right
Rolling hills, red roofs and small villages around a church. The language is the fastest way to tell it from its neighbours.
What to look for
1
Czech letters
Look for ě, ř and ů, which none of the neighbouring languages use, alongside š and č.
2
One blue band
Plates are white with the blue EU band on the left.
3
Red roofs and hills
Villages of red-roofed houses sit among rolling farmland and woods.
