Seasonal recommendations
Seasonal recommendation for visiting the historical monument. Memorial: Vodní mlýn čp. 51 (mill), Habřina, Status:
Spring: In spring, the surroundings of the mill awaken to life. Nature begins to green and water in the stream flows with new energy. The light is soft and unsharp in this period, which beautifully highlights the details of old wood. We recommend to come in the morning when the air is freshest. Dress well, because morning cold can still smell.
Summer: The summer months bring the greatest heat and the most light. Bright water at the mill makes a refreshing impression in the middle of a hot day. At this time there are the most people near the monument, which is why it is best to arrive right after the opening to enjoy the peace. Don't forget the headgear and light clothes to protect you from direct sunlight.
Autumn: Autumn is a time of color spectrum, when leaves around the mill turn color into gold and brown. The morning mist above the water creates a mysterious and soothing atmosphere. Ideal is a visit in the afternoon when the sun shines low and the colors are the most distinctive. Prepare waterproof shoes and coat, because the humidity may be increased.
Winter: Zimą space around the mill turns into a quiet and freezing landscape, often covered with snow. A short day and gray light give the place a serious touch. Since the days are short, plan to visit around noon to use the most light. The necessity is very warm clothes and tight shoes in case the path is slippery.
