Its administrative center is placed in the Czech capital Prague (Czech: Praha), which lies in the center of the region. The city is not, however, a part of it and creates a region of its own.

Pruhonice Park

Pruhonice Park and Castle, classified as part of the Historic Centre of Prague - UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992, is one of the crown jewels of the Czech Republic's national historical parks and an exceptional example of a European landscape park of this style. Covering an area of approximately 250 hectares, the park has a privileged location just 15 kilometres southeast of Prague, making it easily accessible and a perfect destination for either a sunny afternoon or a long weekend. Pruhonice Park is home to 1,600 different kinds of plants, including 8,000 rhododendrons (one of the largest collection in the world) and a unique 3-hectar Alpinum, as well as ponds and streams, 25 kilometers of pathways and a beautiful castle complex with its old church dating from 12th century. This rich combination of natural, cultural, and scenic values, together with a host of exceptional scientific and recreational opportunities, makes Pruhonice Park and Castle an inspiring example of Earth's most important heritage and perhaps Prague best getaway.Nowadays, Pruhonice Park is part of the Institute of Botany of the ASCR, one of the research institutes of the Academy of Science of the Czech Republic, that besides to conduct fundamental research on species, populations and communities of plants, is the organization responsible for its management and maintenance.

I arrived in Pruhonice quite early and after leaving my baggage at the hotel wanted to spend a few hours walking and the park seemed ideal. I’m glad I did, not much else in the center of town aside from restaurants and a spa. I could have spent many more hours walking the paths and just relaxing after a long flight. I recommend the exhibitions in the castle where you can look quickly or dive in deep. I learned about various trees, food crops, gardens, and a variety of vegetation. Much is in Czech, German, and English. The yellow trail is fastest and the easiest, red and blue are longer and have more hills. I did a combination and it’s easy to shorten any of the walks if pressed for time. All the photos I’ve posted are from along the yellow path or courtyard. I may return tomorrow as it was just a great way to unwind and relax.

Chynovska Cave

Reviewed By IvanM599 - Czech Republic, null

People visiting the cave usually expect and see a variety of stalactites. This is totaly different here. The underground spaces are made of coarse-grained crystalline limestone, so don't look for stalactites here. Interesting and colorful walls of various shapes were excavated into the limestone by an underground watercourse. Small part of the cave accessible to the public is more visual show, smartly presented by the guides. The cave in the heart of the mountain is a place of beautiful colors and various rock formations. A unique trip to the fairytale world awaits you with interesting light effects and musical accompaniment. Kids will love it ! Three practical tips : the excursion is not at all suitable for the people with reduced mobility. You should get dressed warmly as the temperature inside the cave is rather low ( around 9 °C ). Try to book your tour in advance. There may be long waiting times during the season

Very nice spot for pictures and a bit of relaxation just behind the corner of Prague. I recommend it for nice sunny days.
