I believe it is Mělník. What is special about it?

It is the town where the Labe joins the Vltava. Mělník is also known as the wine region of Bohemia.

As fast and straight as an arrow, yet again Jay! Well done.

Doesn't a canal also join the two rivers here? Nice bone church, too.

There is a shipping canal there that comes back in near the junction of the two rivers - the main cycle path follows it for a few miles.

And the bone church is an impressive one, even if its not nearly as famous as the one at Kutná Hora.

Nice town.
