Traveler reviews
Dr. Esbon Gakuo
★★★★★5 years agoLarge open areas with mostly murramed paths. Large parts of the park have pristine forest growth and have been left untouched with huge logs on the ground which adds to the natural feel. The meandering footpaths are ideal for jogs, dog walks or just leisurely walks. There are numerous benches scattered around the park that one can just sit and relax. Or you can sit on the well manicured grass lawns and enjoy a sandwich or a chat with a friend. Beautiful place.
Alexander VDR
★★★★★4 years agoWell maintained little park, lots of open spaces to play sports/games or chill with friends. Good paths for walking or jogging. In the summer months there's a lot of activities in the park including a summer bar.
