The quiet cemetary Na Malvazinkách just before dawn. The voices from the near restaurant and barking of dog. The cemetary is surrounded by villas and from one side is the hill towards Radlice. Here use to be huge orchard with cherry trees and poeple's gardens. During the building of the Metra in late 70ies were the trees cut down. On the graveyars are burried many famous people from the Prague history:philosopher and writer Ladislav Klíma, witer Egon Bondy, actor Ferenc Futurista, or writer Jakub Arbes.
