Prague / Kampa island : Sitting on the water's edge

www.flickr.com/photos/francois-2/8058834896/in/set-721576...
Kampa is a false island on the Vltava River in Malá Strana (the Lesser Town), from which it is separated by an artificial mill race named Čertovka (Devil’s Stream). It is separated from the Prague quarter of Smíchov by Říční Street. Originally, there was a small low sandy island with gardens, vineyards and a mill. Kampa got its current area and shape in 1541 when rubble from the fire of Malá Strana and Hradčany was taken there.
