Where Should I go: Hydra or Telc?

Hydra

The island of Hydra is located in the Aegean Sea between the Saronic and Argolic Gulfs. Named for its natural springs, the island now has most of its freshwater imported from the mainland. The real gem of the place is the absence of motorized vehicles. Car and scooters are nowhere to be seen by the narrow marble-cobbled lanes, rocks, and sea. Such vehicles have been outlawed and so the way to navigate the island is by donkey, water taxi, or on foot.

Telc

Telc is a small city located in the southern part of the Czech Republic. It is best known for its historical center, an UNESCO World Heritage Site, which consists of a unique cobbled square lined with colorful Renaissance architecture and surrounded by moats.
