The trail tells Brno's legends in light, and the Brno dragon is its centrepiece. Knights guard a lit entrance gate, a monumental dragon sculpture stands on the route, and the margrave's seal, a lit tower and projections fill in the story. It opens later in the evening than most parks in this chain, from 17:30 to 22:00, which leaves time for the markets on Zelný trh and náměstí Svobody first.
