Hello @derekmadge , I did not register your question sooner. We also have a region called Czech Scweiz as well and probably more similarly named regoins in our small country, probably it was some custom in the past. Journalist and traveller J. A. Trpak named it so in the past, because the place resembled to him a place in Canada and he wanted to support tourism in the region. It is now official name of national natural preserve which has 283 square kilometers. If interested in more details, use Google Translate on this Wikipedia page: ?eská Kanada ? Wikipedie
