Village of Okoř






This town was tiny. Just a dot on a narrow winding lane; in fact the road was about 1.5 car widths wide. The census in 2006 showed 76 people living here. Now, people are fixing up many of the old buildings and one can tell it is coming into its own. It is only 17 km from Prague. Not really far at all.

As I always try to do, I easily found this really nice cafe/restaurant. It was actually a small Hotel called Family Hotel Okoř. I sat outside, along side a rambling brook, adjacent to a nice park, with the remnants of an old Mill. It was a beautiful 75 degree afternoon. The place also had outdoor seating in its own garden, and the inside was nice as well. It would be quite a romantic place to stay.

So here are some pictures of it and some other houses in Okor.
