Every street in Prague, one by one.

I could talk about myself for ages, or I could point out that https://english.radio.cz/ed-ley-englishman-recording-stories-pragues-streets-one-one-8806941 is over two years old but still largely stands (other than the Twitter links).

Prague 4, day 421: Nad svahem

Nad svahem was built in the early 1980s.

A ‘svah’ is a slope or a hillside, and this street is located above one.

Somehow, this is our fourth svah-based street in Prague 4 (and counting): we started with https://whatsinapraguestreetname.com/2025/03/21/prague-4-day-53-svazna/ in Nusle.

And then we were on a slope in Podolí, (https://whatsinapraguestreetname.com/2025/07/01/prague-4-day-133-ve-svahu/) and then under one in Braník (https://whatsinapraguestreetname.com/2025/11/21/prague-4-day-236-pod-svahem/).
