 The
Czech landscape is quite varied. Bohemia, to the west, consists of a
basin drained by the Elbe (Czech: Labe) and the Vltava (or Moldau)
rivers, surrounded by mostly low mountains, such as the Krkonoše
range of the Sudetes. The highest point in the country, Sněžka at
1,602 m (5,260 ft), is located here. Moravia, the eastern part of
the country, is also quite hilly. It is drained mainly by the Morava
River, but it also contains the source of the Oder River (Czech:
Odra). Water from the landlocked Czech Republic flows to three
different seas: the North Sea, Baltic Sea and Black Sea. The Czech
Republic also leases the Moldauhafen, a 30,000-square-metre
(7.4-acre) lot in the middle of the Hamburg Docks, which was awarded
to Czechoslovakia by Article 363 of the Treaty of Versailles, to
allow the landlocked country a place where goods transported down
river could be transferred to seagoing ships. The territory reverts
to Germany in 2028.
The Czech Republic has a temperate continental climate, with
relatively hot summers and cold, cloudy and snowy winters. Most rain
falls during the summer. The temperature difference between summer
and winter is relatively high, due to the landlocked geographical
position.
Within the Czech Republic, temperatures vary greatly, depending on
the elevation. In general, at higher altitudes, the temperatures
decrease and precipitation increases. Another important factor is
the distribution of the mountains; therefore, the climate is quite
varied.
