"Stop to Smell the Roses The Franciscan Garden is delightful public spacejust off the busy Wenceslas Square on the site of a former Franciscan monastery and dates back to the medieval period. Head through the Světozor passage from Vodičkova street or the Alfa passage from Wenceslas Square. Find a seat on one of the benches — a great spot for people watching —and admire the climbing roses in bloom orthe Church of Our Lady of the Snows. If you have children let them enjoy the playground and an ice cream while you sit back and take a breather under the trees."

Beautiful gardens in Prague. Amazing views of the church Our Lady of the Snows. Plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy the outdoors. Beautiful garden with plenty of trees, flower, and shrubs. Few cafes around the garden area. Plenty of walking space. This is a must see when visiting Prague. I loved my visit.

A nice park in the centre of buildings, almost hidden away down an arcade. Lovely quiet park. Musicians can be heard playing here and others enjoying the quiet space with wildlife. I bet in the summer this park will look even better.

Beautiful place but these days it is hard to sit there, you may be get troubled by a homeless person for money.Next to it is my favourite church, opened for prayer and meditation during the day hours.

You can easily miss the entrance if you do not look carefully but once you are in, the gardens are beautiful. Just in a few minutes from the old town center, and apart from the gardens you also enjoy the playground if you have a minor as we did, although the facilities could be renovated.

Small and busy garden in summer. You need to visit this garden because it's fantastic and located in the city center. There are no many parks in the city center of Prague, and this one is great.

A hidden little gem i Prague! The silence in this little park is so remarkable. The sound of the city is gone when you enter this place. A different atmosphere here, not poisoned of the strong commercial focus on tourism.

A charming little garden with several benches, sculptures, well-tended bushes, and plants, including rose bushes—a delightful little oasis.

Nice park. we went to see the sculpture of the boy. We couldn't find it right away. the boy's sculpture is located by the playground in the corner. The kids liked it.
