One of the best parks I've ever seen! Perfect for a picnic or a nice walk. You can also do kayaking on the small lake located in the park. Also great location to bring your kids to, since they have a lot of swings and playgrounds.

Beautiful and big place to enjoy summer time. There is a paid parking but you can find free parking in the streets nearby. There is a nice lake in the middle where you can do some kayak. It has many flowers so it's a nice place for photography.
