Říp

Říp is a solitary hill and a small nature reserve in Czech Republic, at a border between Central Bohemia and North Bohemia.

Understand

You can see Říp rising above surrounding flat from many places in Bohemia, including the country's tallest mountain Sněžka and numerous elevated locations in Prague. That is one of the reasons why Říp has come into local legends and is considered as something as "national mountain" to some Czech people.

History

According to Czech legends, the Czech nation has been established on Říp. The legend says that forefather Čech (praotec Čech) led a Slavic tribe of Czechs from eastern lands. Here they ascend Říp, and on top of it, he saw the beautiful country good for settlement and pronounced it the land of Czechs.
