Discover more about Kampa Park

Kampa Park, located on Kampa Island (though technically a peninsula since 1915) in Prague's Malá Strana (Lesser Town), is a delightful retreat from the city's bustling streets. This picturesque park offers a unique blend of natural beauty, cultural attractions, and fine dining, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking relaxation and refined taste. The island itself has a rich history, with the area being stabilized after a major fire in 1541 that consumed much of Lesser Town. The charred remains were used to shore up the island, and it became the first of Prague's islands to be permanently settled. Today, Kampa retains a fairytale-like atmosphere with its palaces, ancient houses, mills, and bridges. Visitors can enjoy leisurely strolls along the Vltava River and the Čertovka (Devil's Stream), an artificial channel originally dug to power watermills. The park features open grassy areas perfect for picnics, as well as various art installations and sculptures, including the famous yellow penguins and the intriguing crawling babies by David Černý. Kampa is also home to the Kampa Museum, which houses a unique collection of modern and post-war art. For those seeking culinary experiences, Kampa Park offers a range of options, from cozy cafes to upscale restaurants with breathtaking views of the Charles Bridge. Kampa Park Restaurant, in particular, is renowned for its gourmet cuisine, elegant ambiance, and stunning riverside terrace.
