Lonely Planet review

The Powder Bridge (Prašný most; 1540) spans the Stag Moat (Jelení příkop) en route to the spacious, Renaissance-style Royal Garden. This started life in 1534 and its most beautiful building is the Ball-Game House (Míčovna; 1569), a masterpiece of Renaissance sgraffito where the Habsburgs once played an early form of badminton. To the east is the Summer Palace (Letohrádek; 1538-60) and to the west the former Riding School (jízdárna; 1695).
