Park u Rakováčku

I also know Rakováček in its original state. The reconstruction is successful, only some benches are already devastated by people.

Recently, the park is frequented by homeless people and growing youth who use drugs and alcohol.

Park along the stream. Very picturesque. There are places to sit.

The originally free flow of the Rakovský brook with natural meanders was regulated around 1980 into an unsightly canal made of cinder-concrete prefabricates. After twenty years, however, began to grow, collapsed and crushed in places and after the flood damaged the pedestrian bridge and so on the border of the millennium came with a proposal to return the stream natural appearance and build a park around it. It was only in 2014 that construction began after the plans were drawn up. After more than a year the park was finished and handed over to the public. During the realization part of the riverbed with the occurrence of the kingfisher was left in its original form, but unfortunately it has not returned here. The crayfish colony was allegedly restored. The planting around the lagoons, where each was planned to have flowering plants in a particular color for each lagoon, did not come out so convincingly. Instead, the brook is clogged in the central part, it is not visible in the summer and flows into the surrounding floodplain even outside the period of increased flow, where swamps with mosquitoes are formed. Planting willow tunnels and adding game elements to the park is a welcome variegation of walks and frequent target of visitors.

Originally a neglected place, it became a center of meeting and rest. Paved creek, playground and the like.

Been there once, loved it

A relatively large park with climbing frames, attractions for children and rest areas with benches and tables. The attractions are more for older children, but my son, who is 2.5 years old, also enjoys it here. Benches are often a bit of a mess, such as cigarette butts, cans, etc. I would welcome the park to be cleaner. But we still like to go to the park, it's a quiet green place.
