Description
Excursion to Lower Vitkovice provides unique experience of the mining history in the Moraviansilesian region. An english guided tour was a perfect opportunity to educate a group of international students who could see the impressive constructions that are left from the times the area was heavily used and shaped the region famous for its mining and smelters activities. Students were introduced to the processes that took place there, moreover, our guide was providing us with interesting facts and tips. Finally, we finished the tour at the Bolt Tower with amazing views.
