About this place
Medový Újezd is a small municipality and village in the Rokycany District, within the Plzeň Region of the western Czech Republic. Located at geographic coordinates 49.7746 N, 13.7195 E, it belongs to the many quiet Czech settlements that lie well outside the country's main tourist routes.
How many people live in Medový Újezd?
The village had about 300 inhabitants, a figure consistent with earlier records showing 232 residents as of January 1, 2014. That places Medový Újezd firmly among the small rural communities typical of the Plzeň Region, where life moves at a noticeably slower pace than in the region's larger towns and cities. With so few residents, the village keeps an intimate, close-knit character where most people know their neighbors.
Where exactly is Medový Újezd located?
Administratively, the village falls under the Rokycany District, itself part of the Plzeň Region — one of the fourteen regions of the Czech Republic, best known for the city of Pilsen and its brewing heritage, but also home to dozens of small municipalities scattered across the region's rolling, forested countryside. The Rokycany District blends agricultural land with woodland, a landscape pattern common across this part of western Bohemia, and municipalities like Medový Újezd represent its typical, modest administrative unit.
Is Medový Újezd worth visiting for travelers seeking quiet countryside?
For travelers exploring the Czech Republic beyond its best-known destinations, small municipalities such as Medový Újezd offer a glimpse of everyday rural life in the Plzeň Region, away from the crowds found in Pilsen or Prague. With fewer than three hundred residents, the village itself does not offer extensive tourist infrastructure, but that same low-key character can appeal to visitors who value calm, unhurried rural surroundings over organized attractions.
How can travelers reach the area around Medový Újezd?
Since the village lies within the Rokycany District, the nearest larger urban center is the town of Rokycany itself, followed by the regional capital, Pilsen (Plzeň). These two towns serve as natural starting points for exploring smaller surrounding communities, including Medový Újezd, for anyone touring western Bohemia by car.
