The promenade is 132 meters long and 13 meters wide, and has become one of the traditional symbols of Karlovy Vary.

What travellers say about Karlovy Vary

5.0
The Mill Hot Spring Corridor has twelve statues on the top of the classical corridor, symbolizing the twelve months of the year. This beautiful hot spring corridor took ten years to build, and the nave and side corridors are composed of 124 long columns. The traditional hot springs here are not used to soak the body, but to drink it directly. Whether it is a local resident or a foreign tourist, you must try these mineral-rich hot spring waters when you come here. It tastes like a slightly bitter salt soda, and it is definitely not sweet and soothing.

There are hot tubs, barbecue gardens and other leisure facilities. You can also pick grapes here when they are ripe. Although the lights nearby are not big at night, they are very gorgeous and luxurious. There is a swimming pool open in summer and an ice skating rink in winter for people to play. Sometimes, there will be monkey performances, and the clever monkeys will make clever movements like humans, which makes people laugh.

Only after you come here can you know, only after you see it can you understand, the world is so big that there is nothing strange. Life should be experienced more to increase your experience, otherwise such a short life will leave regrets. . . . ,
