Do you know how the park, thanks to the architects' approach and the use of natural principles, helps to counteract the effects of the climate crisis on the city? How does the park work with water? How is the land managed? What parts of the natural vegetation have been preserved and what parts have been enhanced and grown? What will be created next on the vast site of the former tank depot under the direction of Markéta Veličková, David Prudík, Petr Velička, and how and where will the 4D park soon expand?​​​​​​​ REZERVACE
