Týn nad Vltavou is one of the oldest settlements in South Bohemia. The town lies on both banks of the Vltava River, near its confluence with the Lužnice. Týn nad Vltavou is an important center of cultural life. In the center, you can visit the Town Museum (exhibitions on the region, historical puppets, and moldavites) and the prestigious Municipal Gallery U Zlatého slunce (formerly ART CLUB), where leading Czech visual artists exhibit.

Thanks to its location, Týn nad Vltavou is among popular tourist destinations. In the immediate vicinity of the town are the Orlík and Hněvkovice reservoirs—a paradise for anglers and lovers of water sports. The town lies at the end of the backwater of the Orlík reservoir; passenger boat service operates between the dam and Týn nad Vltavou.
