What's in a Prague street name

Every street in Prague, one by one.


Prague 4, day 335: V zahradní čtvrti

V zahradní čtvrti was built in 1935.

This district (‘čtvrť) has a lot of nice houses. Although I wouldn’t particularly recommend performing internet searches to see if you can afford them.

These nice houses are often accompanied by nice gardens (‘zahrady’). Hence this street being ‘in the garden district’.

Looking for this info has led to me inadvertently seeing those house prices on Google, although, to be fair, I’m also looking and thinking ‘what the heck would I do with all that space?’. Guess I’m staying put in Žižkov, and happily.

I’d be a terrible gardener too.
