Zahrada Na Valech, Castle garden in Hradčany, Prague, Czech Republic.
The Zahrada Na Valech garden extends across 1.4 hectares of land, featuring stone pathways and structured plantings surrounding Prague Castle.
The garden emerged from medieval defensive walls in the 16th century when the castle's military function decreased, leading to its transformation into ornamental grounds.
The garden incorporates architectural elements designed by Slovene architect Jože Plečnik, including a terrace that combines Central European and Mediterranean styles.
Visitors can enter through the Paradise Garden or use the Bull Staircase from the castle's third courtyard during summer opening hours.
Two baroque sandstone obelisks stand in the garden, marking the location of the Second Prague Defenestration that initiated the Thirty Years' War.
