I love exploring everything around me - thus, it is not surprising I am a scientist. The important aspect of doing good science is to travel...
All in all, I am traveling quite a lot, mostly around Europe. Since I like bustling cities and quiet historical towns as well as nature, the list of my visited sites is diverse.
My most impressive site: Prague, Assisi, Bauhaus, Primeval beech forests
My proposal for a new site: Ještěd transmitter, Lecce, Burren landscape, Sligo megalithic landscape, Carnac megalithic landscape, Tainan temples in Taiwan

Regensburg (Inscribed)
Regensburg
Regensburg is evaluated lukewarmly in our community. Maybe Regensburg really is a collection of monuments without OUV, but it belongs to few well-preserved German towns after WWII destruction. Well, I …

Nuragic monuments of Sardinia (On tentative list)
Nuragic monuments of Sardinia
The addition of the Nuragic monumets of Sardinia with 31 components to the TWHS list of Italy in November 2021 was no surprise. It can be taken as an extension …

I visited Schonbrunn around 4-5 times, and I would say I go there only occasionally, because it is relatively far away from the city center, well still it is conveniently …

Vienna (Inscribed)
Vienna
Vienna is my most frequently visited WHS outside Czechia.
Actually, I like more Prague or Budapest, since Vienna lacks the 3rd dimension, - the city core is pretty flat, …

Prehistoric Pile Dwellings (Inscribed)
Prehistoric Pile Dwellings
Maybe I am too bold to claim the ticking off the pile dwelling sites.
Last week (in October 2021), I visited Ljubljana and I went by the Slovenian components …

The Fortress of Terezín (On tentative list)

While Florence is more about the treasures of art and particular landmarks, I admire Siena as the prototype of Italian medieval town, and I could imagine to live there for …

Florence (Inscribed)
Florence
