Bechyne: Hotels and accommodations
The Bechyňská duha, also known as the Rainbow Bridge, serves both road and railway traffic in Bechyně. Its arch spans 90 m, and it stands 50 m above the water level of the Lužnice. Regular service on the Tábor–Bechyně railway line began in June 1903. In 1929, the line was extended across the Lužnice to Bechyně; in doing so, it crossed the Bechyňská duha, whose roadway is shared by road and railway traffic.
