Prague is all so beautiful, but where to go for those who love to breathe air, not look at buildings? So be it, I'll tell :)
We're talking about Pruhonice park. Warning, the article has many photos with summer landscapes, sorry :)
How to get there
In Prague you need to get to the Opatov metro station, and there transfer to paid bus 363 or 385. Price = 6-12 crowns, depending on whether there's enough time on your Prague pass (the route goes through Prague districts)
Upon arrival, you'll immediately see lots of greenery, benches. Beautiful.
The only minus not visible in photos - outside it's about +35, stuffy and impossible to live. I was there in the middle of summer, would gladly try to get out in winter too.
Generally, must visit. And for the particularly purposeful - this park is a UNESCO heritage, like the city Telc.
Ticket to the park will cost 30 crowns for a student (50 for adults)
This park is botanical, lots of various plants, trees.
Greenery, solid greenery.
From the map you can see the park is quite large. At a very leisurely pace you can walk around the perimeter in 2-3 hours.
And around is greenery and a castle.

Oh! A bench!
Navigation in the park - by colors. Different paths, depending on duration and control points.
Trees are labeled, so botanists like you also have fun.
Sometimes it's closed :(
Inside the park are many artificial water bodies.
Creatures swim.
Noticed that in Czechia everywhere near young trees there are supports.
Traditionally lots of spider webs
Ducks beg for food. In this same pond you can see huge fish (carp?) - water is very clean.
Handmade signs
Look around :)
Cacti?
On trees are color marks, so you walk on the right paths.
One of the control points - beautiful view of the castle. About halfway through the whole route.
And the final point was a mini tower, the view from which was completely uninteresting :)
Definitely buy ice cream after the walk!
