Vojanovy sady

"The garden, often regarded as the oldest partially preserved garden in Prague, has its origins as a monastery. This historic site allows visitors to admire remarkable features, including the stalactite decoration of the Chapel of St. Elijah, adorned with beautiful wall paintings, as well as sundials dating back to the 17th century. Within the orchards, one can find the Chapel of St. Teresa and the Chapel of St. Eliáše, designed in the style of a stalactite cave. The garden also boasts a small pond, a relaxing pink terrace complete with a sundial, a children’s playground, and a restored greenhouse, all contributing to its tranquil atmosphere. Adding to the charm, several peacocks roam freely throughout the grounds, enhancing the garden’s serene and picturesque setting. Surrounded by high-rise buildings and walls that shield it from the hustle and bustle of the city, the garden offers a unique intimate environment. Upon entering, visitors are often struck by the overwhelming silence and peace, a stark contrast to the vibrant city just outside its borders. The garden is particularly enchanting in late spring when it bursts into a riot of colors and fragrances. Visitors can enjoy the sight of blossoming fruit trees, magnolias, rhododendrons, and thoughtfully arranged flower beds, showcasing a variety of seasonal blooms. This combination of natural beauty and historical significance makes the garden a cherished oasis in the heart of Prague."

"Another one that I unfortunately had to miss because of the weather."
