What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Baudelo Park is appreciated for its dual nature: a peaceful riverside retreat with a good playground, and a lively spot for dancing during the summer festival. While some find it a bit small and lacking grand features outside of events, others enjoy its relaxed atmosphere and family-friendly amenities.
"After wandering away from the city center in Ghent, eventually, people just live there and do everyday life things. Stumbled onto this park that has a river front area, large playground, and areas to just hang out in the grass. Paved areas for biking through or skating maybe with a good area to sit along the short wall."
