Prague with a Stroller, 12 of 12: Wallenstein Garden



A walled early Baroque palace garden from the 1620s, now the garden of the Czech Senate. Peacocks wander the gravel paths, and a pond holds an island with a Hercules fountain. Beside the frescoed open-air hall sits a grotto wall covered in stucco stalactites, plus an aviary. Bronze copies of Adriaen de Vries' Greek gods stand around the flower beds.
Summer brings concerts and theater in the open-air hall.
