No bins, no restroom and hardly any shade except that provided by the small trees around the edge of the park. However there is exercise equipment and the poetry quotations are a nice touch. Just don't go on a hot day. Edit: There is a large Otto bin now placed at the entrance of the park!

A really nice small park. There is outdoor fitness equipment (pull-up bars at different heights, parallel bars, some obstacles) and picnic tables with chess boards embedded into them. There is a bubbler and rubbish bin. Peaceful and friendly.

What a special lovely park! It has a theme of the most legendary and well-known Chinese poet Li Po with a stainless sculpture of Li Po and 3 of his well-known poems. The English translation of the poems was well done. The size of the park is not very large, but the design is lovely with a path through bushy trees on one side and an area with climbing plants on the other. Situated in the quiet residential area in South Hurstville, it offers a sanctuary for mind, body and spirit. Must visit!

Great spot for a bar workout. Multiple single bar heights plus parallel bars, and other stations for sit-ups, etc. Never super busy, and regulars all very friendly. My kids also love it and get a solid workout after school. Amazing (and hilarious) seeing my tiny 5yr girl do proper chin ups! Quite a pretty park, and the garden on one side is packed full of Rosemary. Heaps of friendly Chinese seniors do Tai Chi, and a few of them have some seriously unexpected badass bar skills that have to be seen to be believed.
