The
hidden
gem
of
Prague,
literally!
It
is
quite
easy
to
miss
the
entrance
to
the
gardens,
as
the
visitor
has
to
pass
through
the
archway,
which
is
only
marked
by
a
small
sign.
Maybe
thanks
to
that,
the
gardens
are
quiet
and
there
aren't
too
many
tourists.
Tickets
can
be
purchased
for
120
CZK
(€5)
and
the
visitors
can
visit
the
three
layers
terraced,
symmetrical
baroque
gardens
and
enjoy
a
breathtaking
view
of
the
panorama
of
Prague
Castle
and
Lesser
Town.
Unfortunately,
I
couldn't
visit
the
first
terrace
due
to
a
wedding
in
progress,
but
there
was
a
beautiful
view
from
the
balcony
of
the
second
terrace.
The
second/middle
terrace,
having
a
small
a
pond
and
a
lot
of
places
to
sit,
continues
with
a
symmetrically
arranged
staircase
to
the
highest
and
largest
terrace,
from
where
the
first
red
rooftops
and
the
panorama
of
Prague
starts
to
appear.
For
the
best
view
though,
I
had
to
climb
to
the
arc
looking
like
a
building,
where
a
small
and
very
narrow
deck
is
located.
It
can
get
crowded
quite
easily,
but
the
views
from
here
are
unobstructed
and
frankly
the
best!
I
can't
really
get
tired
of
these
views.
It's
a
perfect
place
to
take
a
couple
of
photos
also.
From
the
top
deck
I
was
also
able
to
fully
appreciate
the
symmetry
of
the
gardens
and
the
beautifully
trimmed
and
manicured
lawn
on
the
second
terrace,
where,
among
other
things,
I
saw
many
statues
and
sculptures.
A
very
nice
informative
brochure
(one
of
the
best
actually)
is
available
when
buying
a
ticket,
from
which
visitors
can
learn
a
lot
of
information
and
tips.
The
toilets
are
located
before
the
entrance
to
the
garden
and
plenty
of
souvenirs
(postcards,
magnets)
can
be
purchased
at
the
ticket
office.
Credit
card
payment
possible.
