When booking a city break or summer getaway, it can be tempting to opt for one of Europe's many popular tourist hotspots. From Venice to Prague, there are dozens of options to choose from, whether you prefer sunny spots or 'coolcationing'.

The walled town of Znojmo is located in South Moravia, Czechia, and has been dubbed the 'Moravian Tuscany' thanks to its picturesque hilly surroundings. The town, which is a two and a half hour drive from the capital, dates back to around 1226 and has a population of 34,000. The labyrinthine tunnels are one of the standout attractions, with 17 miles and four different levels to explore.
There are plenty of other things to see, including the Podyjí National Park, vineyards and the Vranov nad Dyjí castle, a Moravian palace set high above the river Dyje.
