City tour of Prague gardens

City tour of Prague, Prague gardens. If you would like to have a rest during your stay in Prague, we recommend you to visit Prague gardens. From the Middle Ages gardens and vineyards, later also parks, were integral parts of the city.

With your personal guide you can visit, for example, the beautiful renaissance Royal Garden, the Garden on the Ramparts, the palace gardens below the Prague castle, the Wallenstein Garden with unique Salla Terrena and the baroque Vrtba garden.

Royal Garden was laid out in 1534 on the orders of the Habsburg Ferdinand I. From the owners he gradually bought old vineyards beyond the valley of the Brusnice stream and had a Renaissance garden laid out here, which later became famous for its rare botanical specimens and the exotic plants gained from distant countries.

The Southern Gardens were established gradually in the location of bulwarks beneath Prague Castle. Following the latest reconstruction projects at the beginning of the 90s of the 20th century it is now possible to walk through the Southern Gardens and make a circular tour round Prague Castle, from the west starting on the Hradcany square (Hradcanske namesti) to the look-out point Opys near the east gate.

Together with three other Baroque gardens (Vratislav, Schönborn and Lobkowicz), the Vrtba Garden is situated on the slope of Petřín Hill and is one of the most precious of Prague's Baroque gardens. This Italian-style Baroque terrace-garden of was built for Jan Josef, Count of Vrtba, the Highest Burgrave of Prague Castle, near Vrtba Palace in 1715 - 1720.
