Flower Photography: blooming Stromovka Park in Prague
Hey there my Hive friends and followers!
I thought I would be working on the second part of my mini photography series about the Zanzibar beaches today but I just got back from an amazing place here in Prague and I took some nice flower pictures there so I will put off the Zanzibar post to some other day (probably Friday or Saturday) and will share the fresh shots with you instead :)
The place where I got the photos is called Stromovka and it´s a huge park located just outside of the Prague center. With a total area of almost 100 hectares, it´s actually the largest park in the city and you can easily spend long hours just walking around, admiring the beautiful plants, trees and the wildlife that tends to gather around the network of ponds that can be found in the central part of the park. I might show you the park itself in some of my future posts too but today, we will take a look just at the blooming colorful spectacle that is happening there right now ;)
I hope you enjoyed the pictures. There are actually many more plant, shrub and tree species blooming in Stromovka these days but as I already mentioned, the park is really huge and we didn´t have enough time to explore it in its entirety so what you saw in the above featured shots is just a little sample of what can be found there. Moreover, despite the sunshine, it was actually very cold (just above the freezing point) and windy today so the walk was not as pleasant as it may seem from the photos :D But it definitely wasn´t my last time in that park, I would love to see it again in a few weeks when all the trees get covered with leaves. I mean it was already beautiful as it is now but with all the lush greenery back on the trees, it must be even more charming place. A lovely natural oasis and getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. Highly recommended.
To find out the exact location of the Stromovka Park, feel free to check out the Pinmapple, I pinned it there ;)
I have never seen flowers that is as beautiful as this all my life. These flowers are so cute. I like them
Really? Thank you! It was a pleasure to take you on this little flower tour :)
I bet you've forgotten the coldness and enjoyed taking photos of these vibrant beautiful flowers. Great photographs 🥰 👏
Well, I always get excited when taking photos of something beautiful but it was really cold today and my girlfriend was literally freezing so we had to hurry :D :/ Thanks for checking out the photos, glad that you enjoyed them.
Congratulations, your post has been added to Pinmapple! 🎉🥳🍍

I love to see nature blooming all over Europe. Some trees have bloomed here, however my sour cherry tree has not yet :)
Thanks for the beautiful and heartwarming photos!
...and I thank you for your continuous support and attention my friend! Always a pleasure to show you something from my part of the world ;) Cheers!
Flowers are undoubtedly the most natural beauty of nature and given by the creator and enhance the beauty of the earth. The flowers are truly amazing and you have photographed them beautifully.
Thanks for your kind feedback, I was happy to brighten up your day with these colors :)
100 acres is not a small garden, it is nice to see beautiful flowers there, and I believe there are still a lot of beautiful flowers like the one you shared
It´s actually 100 hectares, not acres ;) Thanks for visiting my blog.
Sorry, may be an error in translation😅
However, it is really a yang luo flower

Very pretty flowers.
Thank you! :)
This is really a very beautiful precise shot
Is the blue flower a eagle flower?
Thank you! :) Well, I know most of the flowers and trees featured in the photos but not the little blue ones, sorry :D :/

Thanks!
It makes me happy to see spring. Really, it is still freezing in my city. Still, I will try to get out soon and take some nice nature and flower photos. Maybe I will take some photos to join your Appreciate Beauty of Nature challenge 😅
That would be amazing, cannot wait to check out your very first entry over there :) But still freezing in Turkey? Wow. Is that because you live at a high altitude?
I don't live very high altitude, but yes, it's still cold here. Not really freezing 😂
Ah, ok. I thought you meant freezing literally, like below zero :) That´s what we still have here these days...
Man, it's really cold. It's zero at night here.
🌸🌼🌻 nádherné!
Jo, hezkou prochajdu jsme si včera udělali ;) :*
What a lovely collection of spring photos! We have most of these flowers, blossoms here, but you cant Narcissus or daffodil fields like that. It's still a bit early for such flowers though. We have a cold wave, this morning was around 0. The flower blossoms are done, all the petals are on the ground.
Thanks Erika! I thought you would enjoy this little collection as I know that you like to take similar photos yourself :) Well, we have been having very cold weather here too, usually freezing in the night and just a few degrees above the freezing point during the day these days but it was already very warm like a week ago and that was probably what made all the flowers grow and bloom. I just hope the current frosts won´t destroy them...
NADHERA!! priroda znovu oziva
..milujem jar, tie farby su proste mega!
cool park, som nevedel, ze v Prahe daco take je a nje daleko od centra,waw..
A to je fakt jen malá ochutnávka, protože jsme kvůli zimě a časové tísní pak už dost pospíchali ;) Joo, v Praze je spousta pěkných parků a zelených míst. Prokopské údolí, Divoká Šárka, Modřanská rokle, Kunratický les, Hostivařská přehrada a tak dále... ;) Jak by řekl klasik (skupina PSH): Praha není jen most a hrad ;)
Ha, tak o tom nepochybujem, Praha je urcite jednym z najkrajsich hlavnych miest ake poznam..
chodieval som tam pracovat pocas mojich dvojmesacnych prazdnin v skole ale to bolo v obdobi, kedy PSH vydalo tu songu..a pravdu povedat jedina priroda ktora ma v tom veku zaujimala bola ta, co sa dala sfajcit.. :D
Heh, rozumím, taky pamatuju to období, myslím, že jsme zhruba stejně staří ;)
Absolutely a beautiful place for a walk! Thanks for sharing!
!CTP
Thanks :) I was happy to take you guys on this walk with me.
Wao all these flowers looks so beautiful and amazing. You have captured all the pictures on perfect time. Last picture is my favorite in your photography. Natural sights are very beautiful to the human heart. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for checking out the photos and leaving this nice comment here. Have an amazing day!

What a wonderful photo exhibition. The vivid colors of the flowers are very captivating. The daffodil is one of my personal favorites, seeing it in your post really reminded me of just how much I adore the beauty of nature.
Thanks for your kind feedback! Spring is a truly magical season of the year with all the vivid colors flourishing everywhere after the winter sleep. Glad to know we have so many nature lovers here on Hive ;) Cheers!
All the colourful flowers made my dag a bit brighter. We are moving into winter and all the flowers around us are dieing 😥.
Thanks for sharing the cherry blossom and all the yellow flowers 🌺🌸🌼
I´m sorry that your summer is over down there on the southern hemisphere guys but I thought that even South Africa is still "subtropical enough" to enjoy some greenery all year round. Your trees really shed leaves and flowers die?
Most trees shed their leaves here. And most plants freeze since our temperature goes down to -4 degree Celsius (24F) in our town. Closer to the coast the plants stay alive and happy 😌😁
I see, makes sense. I hope your autumn is at least colorful, like ours here in Central Europe :)

Thanks for the photos, they are very nice
Thanks for checking them out :)

Máte to tam krásne. Na Stromovku som chodila vždy rada. Praha má veľmi pekné parky. No, viem si predstaviť, že to na tých fotkách teplo len vyzerá. My sme teraz na Slovensku a vonku krásne svieti slnko, ale je strašná zima. A ten vietor sa nedá vydržať.
Jar máme asi rovnakú, aj kvety kvitnú v rovnaký čas 🙂
Prajem krásny deň! 🙂
Přesně jak říkáš, fotky vypadají jarně, možná až skoro letně, ale ve skutečnosti byla pořádná zima! :D V noci tu dokonce pořád mrzne, tak snad ten mráz všechnu tu krásu nespálí... Tak si užijte čas doma s rodinou, předpokládám, že tam budete až do Velikonoc... A kdybyste náhodou zavítali i sem do Prahy, jak jsme se nedávno bavili, tak se určitě ozvi ;) Hezký den i tobě a tvé drahé polovičce se slabostí pro středověká brnění :D ;)
My sme sa dnes zobudili do snehu a sneží celý deň 😂 a ja už mám letné gumy na aute, ktorým sme prišli, takže teraz ani nemôžeme nikam ísť...
Ďakujem 🤗 ostaneme ešte týždeň po Veľkej Noci, potom musíme odísť, lebo nás čaká doma záhradka. Bohužial sa nám tentokrát nepodarí prísť do Prahy, lebo pôjdeme cez Viedeň, ale určite dám vedieť, keď budeme mať cestu 🙂 dúfam, že vy v tom čase nebudete žiť niekde v trópoch 😉
Jaj, tak to vás tentokrát to počasí teda pěkně dostalo, to mě mrzí... Tady v Praze dnes celý den svítilo slunko. Ráno byla sice ještě námraza, ale odpoledne na sluníčku to bylo na krátký rukáv :) Snad se oteplí i u vás, abyste mohli aspoň někam na výlet...
No, u nás člověk nikdy neví, ale pokud ještě budeme v Praze, když si sem někdy uděláte cestu, moc rádi se s vámi sejdeme ;)
Blossom flowers loved see that all beautiful blooming flowers 😍🌸
Thanks for stopping by.

You're welcome.
The other week, I went picnicking with my boyfriend in a park up North of Cebu City; it was great there but now I'm daydreaming the park would've look more magical if there were flowers. There were huge trees but only a few flowers that were really not attention grabbers as the ones in your photos.
Really? That´s interesting because most of the natural tropical places around the world that I have visited were full of various blooming plants, regardless of the season... Maybe the park that you are talking about was up in the mountains where only certain species thrive?
It's just a few meters from the National Road so it's a bit odd. Or maybe the management of the park didn't plant enough flowering plants for me to notice.
Great pictures! I love plants, would love to see some extreme close ups!
Thank you! Well, I would love to take even closer close ups but my old phone wouldn´t let me, this is pretty much the best that I can get out of it when it comes to close ups :D :/
Good stuff my friend, beautiful colours and scenery!
Keep up the good work
Your photos are very beautiful, incredible. I loved your publication too much.
Thanks, I´m glad to know that you read and enjoyed this post.
That's right, brother, I quite enjoyed it. I'm just starting out in the world of Hive, are there any tips you can give me to become as outstanding publications as yours?
Oh, I didn´t notice you are a newbie so let me welcome you here :) Well, blog about what you really like and enjoy, try to engage and connect with like minded people, be consistent and patient but most importantly - have fun here on this amazing blockchain! :)
The idea is to take it as a social network to share and enjoy. Thanks for your time, my friend.
Any tag you recommend?
It depends of what topics you will write about. My friend @erikah recently made a series of great posts and tutorials for newbies where you can find a lot of useful info, you may want to check it out ;)
Thank you very much, brother. I have already read the publication you recommended. I thank you very much for your time. I found it of great value to me.
Jaro v plném proudu. Sice je třeba nasadit kulich a zimní bundu, ale jinak pohoda :-)

Za málo :-)
Wow! What a beautiful place, there are so many flowers there! How can you walk among so many flowers and not step on them? Lovely photos :-)
Thank you! Well, there are actually not that many of them, it just looks like that in the photos because I took them from a very short distance and from low angles ;) But yeah, it´s a very nice place and it will be even nicer when the trees get covered with leaves again... Thanks for your visit my friend!
Always a pleasure 😺🤘🤗
My rhinitis is going wild by just looking at these beautiful photos 🤣
Hahaha I know this too well my friend! Been allergic to so many plants and trees since I was a little kid but interestingly enough, cold weather somehow suppresses the itching and sneezing seizures for me. It was almost freezing that day so I was actually fine and could enjoy all the floral beauty. But once it gets warmer, my allergy will be back and my asthma probably too :D :/
What a post so full of colors, different flowers of different sizes and shapes, I think that of all the flowers you showed the only one I knew or the only one I had seen before I think are the last ones that are orange.
Thanks for your kind words, I´m glad that you enjoyed the pictures :) The last photo depicts the pansy flowers...
I didn't know that's what the flowers were called, thank you very much, I had seen some like that but they were orange like the ones you show.
Wow amazingly beautiful - how did I miss this. It seeems as though Europe is awash with flowers at the time. I would love to visit this parkl next time I am in Prague as well. The blooming flowers are astounding. Thanks for bearing the cold weather and sharing these beauties with us.
Thanks for your visits to my blog, always appreciated! :)
These flowers are beautiful. Of course, I love cherry blossoms.
Me too :) Thanks for checking out these photos.
You're welcome! :D
