Zagorodnyi Park is an urban park in Samara with extensive green spaces, walking paths, and recreational areas surrounded by mature trees. The park sits along the Volga River shore and offers various options for relaxation and activity.
The park was established in 1932 during a period when Samara was modernizing its urban spaces. It became an important part of the city's approach to creating public recreational areas.
The park serves as a gathering place where residents regularly attend open-air film showings and local celebrations during warmer months. These events define the space as a meeting point for people across the city.
The park is easily accessible by public transportation, and the internal pathways accommodate walking, jogging, and cycling. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes, especially if exploring the paths or descending to the river shore.
The park has staircases that lead directly down to the Volga River shore, allowing visitors to combine park and riverside in a single visit. This direct connection to the water is a feature that many visitors initially overlook.
