Prague Unknown IV

New unusual places and corners of Prague await you in the fourth volume of the popular book Prague the Unknown. Visit the romantic Jánský vrch in the Lesser Town or see the splendid or less splendid villas in Vinohrady together with the author. Take a walk along the natural-historical route from Mala to Velká Chuchle through the extensive Chuchel Grove, or wander into the smallest district of Prague, Zadní Kopanina. Finally, you can visit the unknown First Republic colony Domov na Žižkov, which will enchant you with its picturesque beauty.

„ You have to take the tram so far that the driver doesn't dare to go any further and therefore turns around, that is, to the final station; then you go straight down the road; usually on one side of the road there is nothing and on the other side there is a fence, and then there is a factory and a football field, and perhaps the last landmark of civilization: a tobacco booth. Then you venture across the field, across the mud, across the rumisko, and you're there: in the Home&hellip cooperative colony; “
