What people say
Really busy park. Toilets did not open at 7am as stated on the website. Too urban to feel like an escape from the city.
Great park! Good playground. Great space to go scootering and not too busy.
An open park suitable for football and basketball training as well as running and fitness exercises.
Great soccer field and running or jogging track around the soccer field. It's safe and great lighting for evening exercise and fun with the kids
Such a beautiful park, for people of all ages. Kids run around, adults play and old men walk around remembering those good old days. The playground is big enough for different kinds of sports. It is a good spot for kids to play around as well.
