Rajská zahrada (Czech pronunciation: [ˈrajskaː ˈzaɦrada], English: "Paradise Garden" or "Garden of Eden") is a Prague Metro station on Line B. It was opened on 8 November 1998 as part of the extension of Line B from Českomoravská to Černý Most.[1] The station was designed by Patrik Kotas.
It has an unorthodox platform design, where trains in each direction are on a different level with the westbound platform being directly above the eastbound track. Due to its unique architectural design, Rajská zahrada was named the Czech Construction of the Year for 1999.[2]
