Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: Letenske Sady

Letenske Sady, also sometimes generally referred to as "Letna," which is only part true, spans a 1.5 kilometre stretch of parkland between the corner of Skalecka and Frantizka Krizka streets roughly seen here facing the other direction (west), and Chokovy Sady, another portion of parkland to the west. It is thus a constituent part of a larger stretch of parkland that reaches as far west as Kajetanka, 4.3 kilometres away.

The Letna beer garden (actually a misnomer, as there are several) is a well-liked hangout for most kinds of people in Prague, particularly foreigners, and so I found myself at a party of old friends there during the summer. This beer garden has a good view of most of Prague since Letna is at a pretty high elevation compared to the rest of the city, and in some ways the views are even better than on Petrin. In any case, in this photo you can clearly see both the Stefanikuv Most and the Zizkovske Televizni Vez.

If you swing your camera over to the right of the last photo, you also can get a good view of the Stare Mesto, or old town, with the male and female towers of Tynsky Chram on the left, and the clock tower of the Stare Radnice (Old Town Hall) to the right of it.
