No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to fly.

The world offers no shortage of fascinating, thrilling, silly, scary and sometimes confusing opportunities to behold what other members of your species are up to. We’ll cut to the chase on this one, as it’s quite a tale, one that could only really happen in the post-1960’s movies, or for that matter, anything that happened during that swinging decade. In 1973, a new hotel opened outside the city of Liberec, in what was then Czechoslovakia. And it looked like nothing anyone had seen before. So what’s it like inside? How did it win one of the biggest prizes in architecture? And why was its designer banned from the official opening? The story is fun, slightly silly and – best of all – you can stay there. One of our fave YouTubers, The Tim Traveller, tells you all about it. Definitely worth the trip.

The building of a hotel in the Jested tower is an unique piece of architecture on the mountain 6.2 mi far of city Liberec. A restaurant serving local and modern cuisine is available on site. Various cycling and hiking possibilities are available in the near vicinity. Babylon Water Park is 6.2 mi away, while the Zoo and the Botanical Garden are 9.3 mi away.
