It is well known for its aesthetically and ecologically valuable landscape: extensive complexes of sandstone rock formation as well as cultural heritage, which comprises especially religious and folk architecture.

One of the main phenomena of this area is the cretaceous sandstone relief with vast rock towns, table mountains and cuestas.

The deep cold gorges of the rock towns support rare floral life, rich alpine vegetation is found here in inverse positions, while on the rock plateaus warm and dry pine woods can be found.

There is a unique set of ten Baroque churches built in the 18th century in villages around Broumov, on the territory of the Broumov monastic estate, by famous architects, father and son Christoph Dientzenhofer and Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer.
