ABOUT REGION The Pardubice Region is located in Eastern Bohemia; a short part of its boundary in the Orlick Mountains lies along the state boundary with Poland. It neighbors with the regions Hradec Krlov, Central Bohemia, South Bohemia, South Moravia, Olomouc and Vysoina. The region is divided into four districts: Chrudim, Pardubice, Svitavy and st nad Orlic. Its area is 4,518 km2 or 5.7 % of the national territory. The region is the 10th largest in the country. As of H1 2009 there were 515,040 inhabitants which make it the 12th most populated among regions of the Czech Republic. There are 452 communities (7.2 % of all communities in the country, 6th place among all regions). The city of Pardubice, the regional capital, has a population of 88,316. There are 17 towns and cities with a population exceeding 5,000 in the region. Large protected landscape areas, Orlick hory, elezn hory and a part of rsk vrchy, are located in the territory of the Pardubice region and they are frequently visited by tourists. The vicinity of reservoir Se is most visited in summer; otherwise lots of facilities serve mainly for purposes of congressional tourism. Agricultural tourism, focusing on horse breeding, is also very popular in the Pardubice region. Velk pardubick Steeplechase and Zlat pilba (Golden Helmet) dirt track race are sporting events of international importance, taking place in Pardubice every year. The historic downtowns in Pardubice, Moravsk Tebov and Litomyl were declared urban sanctuaries. The castle in Litomyl is the only landmark in the region placed on UNESCO list of world heritage. In spite of this, the region is lagging behind all others is some areas of tourism, i.e. number of accommodation facilities, their capacities and the average number of nights a visitor spends in the region. Univerzita Pardubice, with ve colleges, is the largest university in the region. The colleges of transportation and chemical technologies are focused on traditional disciplines and their importance exceeds the regional level. The faculty of restoration in Litomyl is the only one in the country. Farming has a more than average share in the regional GDP, mainly as plant production is concerned. Electrotechnics, chemistry and machinery rms are the most important employers in the region. Industrial plastics and nanotechnology clusters have been created in the region. The potential of the region lies in: the tradition of the chemical industry, the focus of local universities on local lines of business, the location of the city of Pardubice on I. and III. railway corridors, the nishing of the motorway D11 and the building of a new speed communication further on, development of agro - tourism, natural and cultural landmarks and eventual attempts to extend transportation by riverboats.
