Prague's Green Oases as an Inspiring Venue for Every Occasion
Prague is one of the greenest cities in Europe. You may know it primarily for its rich history and magnificent architecture, but it also occupies the second place in the ranking of European cities most suitable for nature lovers.
The latest study by Compare the Market granted Prague a beautiful silver position in the ranking, and evaluated European cities not only according to the area of greenery, but also according to air purity, pedestrian paths, diversity of animal species and many other factors.
However, the nature in the city is not just for pleasing the eye, although it certainly contributes to the beauty of Prague. A larger amount of greenery leads to improvements in the quality of life of residents and, in addition to relaxation purposes, it also has a positive effect on the microclimate, provides shade, retains water and increases biodiversity.
There is nothing better than having the opportunity of escaping to nature at your fingertips, and Prague is trying to accommodate this trend as much as possible. As part of the "Greenery in Prague" project, the Technical Road Administration currently manages more than 5,000,000 m2 of grass areas, as well as taking care of trees in tree alleys and orchards, shrubs and flower beds throughout the city. And what is the plan for the future? Continue to expand nature.
The climate crisis also plays one of the decisive roles in the constant care for the landscape - further expansion of greenery is key to minimizing the impact of the crisis. This is where Prague focuses its attention through its strategy of adaptation to climate change, and heads thanks to it towards sustainability in the long term.
Whether it is Prague's parks, gardens or flower beds, the combination of greenery and urbanism creates an ideal environment not only for local residents but also for organizing various events in the open air.
