Most beautiful park I was ever been to. There are so much space and activities you can do: Children's playgrounds, sports fields, book flea markets, sightseeing, roller skating, ... We were there every day because it is so big.

A very nice park. Clean, beautiful, alive, a nice place to read a book in quite areas under the trees. Good place to relax, take a nap or spend time alone or with friends.

An incredible city park! It's large, well maintained, and very family friendly. It's great for running, walking, picnics, and dog walking. There are so many areas that are all structured for varying activities and interests. There are play areas for younger kids, green spaces for whatever suits you, and workout areas if that's what you're looking for. All and all I'm very impressed.
