★★★★★a year agoThis is a good place if you like to walk a lot and if you like nature, it's also convenient to get there as the is a dedicated metro station just for the park. And don't worry about food, I saw lots of cafés and restaurants, EVEN A KFC! overall, as someone who likes nature and walking, this is a solid 4-star park! This is also a good place to hangout with your family and friends! you can fly a kite and go sightseeing!
