Kamenický Šenov via IDOL bus routes
A city of glass and chandeliers, situated at the junction of the Lusatian Mountains and the Bohemian Central Mountains. The first records of the settlement date back to the 14th century, but it was the tradition of producing crystal chandeliers and engraved glass that brought the town worldwide fame.
