Description
The aim of the book Stories of Prague's Parks and Gardens is not only to capture the historical transformations of these places but also to gently encourage deeper exploration for all those who enjoy the many well-maintained green spaces in the city, whether for relaxation, sports, or daily walks with pets, primarily for casual enthusiasts. Therefore, its author, an enthusiastic connoisseur and admirer of Prague, does not provide any academic, dry exposition or list - his engaging narrative instead offers plenty of intriguing details, vividly and lively bringing to life the stories and merits of many well-known personalities, as well as seemingly insignificant figures, and also mentions some legends and tales, all to entertain the reader, sometimes even prompting a smile. Each chapter is complemented by charming photographs by Michael Romanovský, whose fresh, tasteful perspectives on well-known places seem to cleverly connect with the author's narrative, sensitively enhancing it, and even starting a new story...
