Traveler reviews
Mannette Cabello
★★★★★6 months agoLocated just across the street from where we stayed, the park was such a great place to either sit around or work out. I found many people running, playing sports around the area and it was a fun place to be. I had to navigate across those who lived in the park tho, had to make sure we don't disturb the locals. P.S I love how after every jog I made, I just walk across and then have coffee at Little Hanoi. Always will be a core memory. ✨

★★★★★8 months agoespecially in the evening many people go there for some exercises (there is quiet a few tools for everyone for free to use, playing badminton, going for a run or just meeting friends and sit on a bench. also the underground central market with shops and a food court ist in the middle of the park.
