You step through the iron gates at U Trojského zámku and the city noise softens to the rustle of leaves and distant animal calls. Paths curve along terraced slopes above the Vltava, and the first views open onto enclosures carved into the Troja valley: rock faces, planted corridors, and purposeful vistas that let light and landscape play across habitats.
