Gorki-Ametievo forest park, Urban forest park in Kazan, Russia
Description
Gorki-Ametievo forest park is an urban green space in Kazan that connects two separate forest areas through a central recreational zone. The space features walking and cycling paths distributed throughout, with various facilities embedded within the natural woodland.
History
The forest area was designated as a protected nature zone in 2014 before being developed into a public park for residents. The space officially opened to the public in 2016 following this designation.
