β β β β β 6 months agobefore you chase your sunset here, you can jog around the park. then watch the light go dark and see the city lights across the river lit up. finish this with a beer and some sold at the stalls.

β β β β β 8 months agoIt's a MUST to visit during sunset time. It's very chill to have a walk here during sunset time and watch as the sun goes down. The view during sunset is sooooo beautiful that you wouldn't want to miss it
