"Wonderful place to spend some time in the nature. In its surroundings there are pitches to play football and courts to play basketball for free, as well as games for kids. Various benches to have a sit and people usually reading or just relaxing. There’s a pathway throughout the park with great views where bikes are allowed as well, adding to this a bridge to cross over the little lake. The ducks 🦆 , swans 🦢 birds 🦅 and other animals are friendly and come by really often. I recommend it"

"A lovely and peaceful park that is maintained very well by the city. This is a great spot for runners as there are many paved paths throughout, and surrounding the big lake. There are also designated bike paths throughout the middle section, as well as plenty of seating for everyone to enjoy."
