Traveler reviews
Alexander
★★★★★3 years agoVery nice and calm place where you can spend your time with friends and family, take lots of pictures and have a break, sitting on one of the many benches around this park. I believe there are also children zones, but I am not sure.
Paul Gardi Getvan
★★★★★3 years agoVery beautiful forest, with a lot to see. Walks can be very relaxing and atmospheric, especially during foggy weather. Kids can have a lot of fun in the moderately sized playground, I personally spent a lot of time there during my childhood. The landscaping is amazing and very natural for a man-made park/forest, complemented by the wide variety of animals living there, a lot of the times even observable. Overall, always an enjoyable stay.
