Where to go for a walk in Kyiv? Of course, in the capital's picturesque parks.
Natalka Park

Partisan Glory Park
The park was established in 1970. The park is home to the Chervonokhutirski Lakes landscape reserve of local importance.
Residents of Pozniaky, Osokorky and the entire Kharkiv district, as well as Nova Darnytsia and Chervonyi Khutor, have a great opportunity to enjoy a walk through pine and deciduous forests, breathing in freshness and coolness away from the hustle and bustle.
The fountain in the Partisan Glory Park was included in the National Register of Records of Ukraine as the tallest lighted pedestrian fountain.
The highlight: the tallest light pedestrian fountain in Ukraine consists of five arches from 6 m to 7.7 m, creating a waterfall.
City garden
It's great when a city has its own secret corners where it looks more like a village than a metropolis. This is the oldest park in Kyiv. It was laid out according to a project developed in 1748 under the guidance of architect B.F. Rastrelli. Back then, it was called the Tsar's Garden.
The highlight: landscape design, panoramic views of the left bank.
Syretskyi Hai Park
Located in the Shevchenkivskyi and Podilskyi districts of Kyiv.
In addition to a unique children's railway, the park has an interactive fountain, which has already become a favourite place for kids to have fun.
The highlight: Kyiv Children's Railway.
Kyoto Park
The park was founded in 1972 as a sign of friendly relations with the sister city of Kyoto.
Kyoto Park is an amazing injection of Japanese culture into the Kyiv landscape. The originality of this park lies in the fact that it is an artificial garden made of stones with a large pagoda in the centre of the composition, which was borrowed from the traditional architects of the Land of the Rising Sun.
The highlight is the unique landscape design and the sakura alley.
