Beautiful park to go hangout with family and friends! Lots of local animals that are adorable. Relaxing and calm atmosphere. Great spot for picnic, casual stroll, running, study session, etc.

Large green space with grass, an amphitheatre and a huge reflection pool with a monument. There are also public washrooms here. There is a japanese garden here but it was closed at the time I came (Feb 2025). Awesome place to simply walk, hangout or have a picnic.

A great park to spend a good day of an afternoon. There are a lot of bars and other places to have a drink and a snack. There is also a small train that runs true a part of the park.

Perfect day for the Zoo and was not very crowded. The weather was perfect. We saw all the animals except the bats! 🐻🦓🐒🐅🐊🦒🐍
