Mácha's Country is a picturesque area situated to the south of the town of Česká Lípa. Its name originates from the Czech poet Karel Hynek Mácha who loved this area and who set the plots of some of his literary works there. The centre of the area is Máchovo jezero pond, which is surrounded by the hills of the Ralsko Uplands with several castle ruins, out of which the most famous are Bezděz and Ralsko.
The Kokořín region is famous for its romantic gorges and bizarre sandstone formations, which cannot be found anywhere else in Bohemia in such a form and range. The most famous are the rocky Pokličky – they have become a symbol of the whole area. The picturesque nature of the Kokořín region is dotted with a number of small villages that have kept their folk architecture.
