Transportation between the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia is never in short supply at the Ostrava-Svinov Rail Station. Dripping with old world charm, the train terminal operating in the northeastern Czech city of Ostrava, the third-largest in the nation, is also a strategic location to pick-up car rentals. Historically, Czechs called Ostrava the “steel heart” of the country due to its former coal-mining industry. Despite the industrial area that it represents, the city and capital of the Moravian-Silesian Region boasts an array of top-notch museums, theaters and quaint architecture. Also, considering that it’s only 15 kilometers from the Polish border, it serves as a gateway to the roaming meadows of Central Europe.
