Prague – Heart of Europe

The folklore summer in the Czech Republic is usually rich in interesting programmes and festivals, many of which have won fame even beyond the country’s borders, and have become a matter of prestige for domestic and foreign ensembles as well as visitors. Pride of place among domestic summer folklore events is taken by a regional festival called the Moravian Slovakia Year which is held in the picturesque town of Kyjov in Moravian Slovakia.
