České Švýcarsko National Park, located in the Děčín district, captivates with its unique sandstone formations and deep forests. Its greatest attraction is Pravčická brána, the largest sandstone arch in Europe, near which stands the Sokolí hnízdo castle. The park offers a varied landscape with the canyons of the Labe, Kamenice, and Křinice rivers, and is home to many species of plants and animals, including the peregrine falcon. The area borders the German National Park Sächsische Schweiz and together they form the Elbe Sandstone Mountains, a significant European sandstone region.Wikipedia
