Conference venue

The conference will be held in Průhonice, a village 2 km beyond the borders of Prague. The village is strongly influenced by two research facilities located in Pruhonice:

• The Institute of Botany of the Academy of Science of the Czech Republic
  The Institute of Botany keeps a large park founded by Silva Tarouca with the oldest rock garden in the Czech Republic and also one of the oldest in the EU (131 years).
• The Silva Tarouca Research Institute for Landscape and Ornamental Gardening (RILOG)
  The RILOG keeps a large dendrological garden that was founded originally as a repository garden for the cultivation and conservation of woody plants, but now it is designed as a park. The congress center and hotel complex where the conference will be held, belongs to RILOG and was reconstructed to represent a farm yard complex.
