Living art gallery.

The urban heart of Moravia, stately and sophisticated Brno boulevards are lined with grand playhouses, chic cafes and old school pivnice (beer halls). Unwilling to live in Prague's shadow, Brno is very much a living city, from its countless galleries, museums and theatres to its scruffier edges.
