The amazing Mapu’a Vaea blowholes extend for 5 kilometres along the south shore on Tongatapu. Their name means "Chief's Whistles", and you can see the water forced through the natural vents in the coral limestone cliffs sometimes up to 30 metres in height.

The River Rönne winds its way through the countryside from Lake Ringsjön to the sea at Ängelholm. This stretch is 85 kilometres long, and you can paddle your way along through almost tropical scenery, and past areas with rich cultural traditions. The peaceful journey is occasionally punctuated with rapids. There are plenty of things to see and do along the way. Some sections are ideal for families with children. You can choose to paddle for a few hours or a few days. One example is the trip from Gunnarödsbron/Stockamöllan to Rögnaröd/Djupadal, which takes around four hours. You can hire canoes and kayaks from various locations, and most hire companies also offer overnight accommodation. Stay in a converted stable or a 17th century cottage. Or why not get a whole bunch of friends together and hire a 20- or 12-man tent. If you want to spend the night in the great outdoors, there are places with shelters, toilets and firewood. For a particularly Swedish summer experience, combine a canoeing trip with hiring a sauna trailer. Take a hot sauna, followed by a dip in the river.

Every September, Pilsen is invaded by visitors that do not only aspire to see the city but also join this wonderful festival, as its programme features a selection of most significant plays written and played by both domestic and foreign productions. Try to take this happening into account, when planning your stay, and you will experience the city in an even better way.

This celebration of the foundation of the independent Czechoslovakian state is a opportunity to visit many sights in the city either free of charge or for advantageous entrance fees, and the firework in the evening is an all time favourite. While a street food festival will introduce tastes from the period of the First Republic, performances take place quite all over the centre, and for people of all ages.
