Gagarin park, Simferopol, Public park in Simferopol, Ukraine.

Located near the railway station, this 36-hectare park contains two artificial lakes connected by channels, with an island hosting wild ducks.

The park opened on October 19, 1965, and received its name in honor of Yuri Gagarin, the first human to travel into space.

The Memorial Complex with Eternal Flame, established in 1975, stands as a tribute to fallen soldiers and includes the reburial site of Unknown Soldier.

The park features numerous walking paths, benches, cafes, children's attractions, and sports facilities accessible through multiple public transportation routes.

In 2007, the park incorporated a memorial dedicated to Chernobyl victims, containing a capsule with names of 372 Simferopol residents affected by the tragedy.
