Letna Gardens and Terrace
This park boasts some great views but there are also some interesting historical overtones to its huge concrete terrace. This terrace used to be home to the world’s largest statue of Stalin in the 1950s; it was blown up in 1962. Today skateboarders, a beer garden and a metronome symbolizing the passage of time are the highlights here.
