I like hidden places and Kinského zahrada in Prague is one of them. The gardens seem to be part of Petřín, a huge hill with this miniature Eiffel tower sitting on the top, but are more private, hidden behind a wall. Gardens were rebuilt in the English style in the 19th century (I read this fact while writing this article) and it probably explains why I see people having picnics on the lawn and why the place feels to me instinctively English. Kinského zahrada is all about great views too. I don’t know why people love views so much…does it make us feel on the top of the world and all the things on it? Is it the combination of the magnificent and scary? I’m not sure myself, but I love them. And Prague is, thanks to its hilly nature, very generous with views. You have to climb up a bit to catch the best views. I took this picture by the biggest lake in the park and it gives a pretty view of the eastern part of Prague, highlighting Prague’s Manhattan on Pankrac. Author: Irena Schlosser.

Summer cinema sessions will start on June 18 right on the rooftop of Prague’s Exhibition Palace (Veletržní palác). That is a really unusual and inspiring place to watch well-known Czech and foreign films on the original motion picture film of the 16 and 35 mm format and enjoy the view. The cinema will be opened until October; the movies are scheduled every Tuesday and Wednesday (beginning at 21:30). The cinema hall has been there since the Palace was opened. It was located in the basement of the building and called Kino Favorit, and then renamed to Kino Veletrhy. The cinema was, unfortunately, destroyed by fire in August 1974. With hundreds of millions of crowns worth of damage, it was too costly to rebuild the palace. While there was discussion and heated debate on its future, it stood empty for two decades – there was even talk of tearing it down, until it came into the hands of the National Gallery, which was looking for space to exhibit its modern art collection. The one billion crown renovation lasted for almost an entire decade. It was not until December 13, 1995, that it was officially opened. The ceremony was attended by then Czech President Vaclav...
On July 19th, Manifesto Market Prague Smichov will open its doors to the first visitors and make the unique experience of pairing elegant design, local and international food and cultural performances more accessible to the residents of Vltava’s left bank. Manifesto seeks to revive Smichov’s unused yard of the historical Narodni dum communal building. This pop-up concept will have a shorter existence than its Florenc sibling and should move after this winter to another site in the same district. “We are creating a new, exciting community hub near Andel, that seeks to reconnect Narodni dum building and local residents to the bounty of beautiful gardens, parks and Vltava riverfront nearby,” said Manifesto’s founder Martin Barry. A new culinary garden At Manifesto Smíchov, organizers will collaborate with fine-dining experts Zatisi Group and Sasazu and bring along a couple of Manifesto’s favorites – PokeHaus and Faency Fries, The Craft will test a new concept.

Park Ladronka might have been a calm and empty park some years ago. But ever since the Prague city hall renewed the paths and added free open-air fitness stops, the park has been crowded with bikers, in-line skaters and runners. Luckily, there are still a few places to rest, so do not feel pressed to come and sweat blood. In the middle of the park, there is an ancient manor which gave the park its name. Its history. according to modern hurried times, sounds something like this: vineyards of Charles IV. (14th century), manor of Filip Ferdinand de la Crone (17th century), destroyed (19th century), housing for few families (first half of 20th century), storehouse (second half of 20th century), housing for squatters and center of alternative culture (1993 – 2000). In Park Ladronka you can go running, in-line skating, play frisbee, beach volleyball (200 CZK per hour), and do hundreds of other activities you think of when you see an opened green field. If you love in-line skating, rent a pair of skates in the manor. The rental is open from Monday to Friday from 12 pm to 8 pm & 10 am to 8 pm on weekends. One...
Summer is a special season for wine lovers. As it begins, so does the time of meeting people in the warm weather and enjoying fresh sparkling wine, rosé and Riesling. The third edition of Riesling Rocks, an open-air festival of wine and music in the city center and organized by the Vinograf, will take place on June 6th. Vinograf is a network of wine bars, and an unofficial Prague ambassador for the best quality wine, which collects bottles from Bohemia and Europe. The sommeliers at Vinograf take both laymen and experts on an inspiring and adventurous journey into the world of wine. You can taste more than 50 types of Riesling from the Czech Republic, Austria, France, Tasmania, New Zealand, Australia, Italy, Slovakia, including some rare ones. Refreshment will be prepared by the Vinograf’s chef, Milan Hořejší. ABOUT RIESLING Riesling is a light-skinned, aromatic grape of German origin which is – if the majority of top wine critics are to be believed – the world’s finest white wine grape variety. The Riesling vine holds a very different place in the wine world to such great grapes as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot or Chardonnay. While these immensely popular varieties have conquered every corner of the winegrowing world, Riesling is conspicuously absent from the core wine regions of France, Spain, and Italy. Its...
Living in a bigger city like Prague surely has many plusses and offers loads of entertainment at anytime you wish. However, although the chaotic city life of Prague, for our runners it might not be ideal with all the buzz in the city center that one might find, the thousands of tourists and never-ending traffic and air pollution. Luckily, if you are living in Prague you have many opportunities where to escape for a nice run out of the rush but yet close to the city center. I asked my colleague Albert who has attended several Prague Marathons how and where to train in Prague. According to Albert, every person has a different style of preparation for a marathon. That depends on your type of body, the physique, time you dedicate to your training and which goals you wish to achieve. Albert’s 5 rules he follows every time he prepares for a marathon are: 1. Right nutrition: fundamental to program with a proper running program – certain foods need to be taken at different times of your schedule. You should put more protein in your diet as it helps rebuild your muscles after a long run. Few days before the marathon I always eat more carbohydrates like pasta, rice...

Berlin is one of my favourite cities I have visited and it is mainly because of the great atmosphere that this city possesses and the great music taste! It is simply a techno city and its unique underground clubs are very popular among music and party lovers. I have always wished to experience something similar in Prague. Firstly, I thought that it would not fit into my city, but I have witnessed something completely different. In the end, I think that Ankali is a great addition to the local club scene. Ankali is a music club hidden in Prague 10 and you certainly must know where are you going, because the building is a former factory, a little bit scary and doesn’t look like a place to spend a great evening. Or maybe that is exactly why it is a guarantee for a great evening. People come here to enjoy techno, drum ‘n’ bass or electro vibes and nobody really cares how it looks. Its ramshackle look makes it very chilled, but with a busy and energizing atmosphere. The music events are always on Friday and Saturday night and if you are a techno lover, you will certainly love it....
