JES

The city intends to improve the quality of the park premises so that they reach a comparable level with the best parks in the Czech Republic, both in terms of garden and landscape design and in terms of attractiveness and practical value for residents and visitors. The aim is to integrate this most important city’s green space into the town's life to get closer to the center. The subject of the competition is not only the park's rehabilitation but also the question of connecting Smetana Gardens with the city center and, at the same time, reflecting on the park's relationship to the Bělá River.
