Sightseeing in Brno.

Old town of Brno.

The Kamenný vrch Nature Reserve is located inside Brno and is home to thousands of Greater Pasques (Pulsatilla grandis). It was a bit cold, even there was some snow so the flowers were not fully open, but still it was spectacular to see this large population.
