Jesus Green, Public park in central Cambridge, England

The green expanse stretches between the River Cam and Victoria Avenue, featuring long avenues of London Plane and horse chestnut trees throughout the grounds.

The park emerged from the division of common lands, with Victoria Avenue constructed in 1890 separating it from Midsummer Common, marking its transition from grazing land.

The Cambridge Beer Festival takes place on Jesus Green each May since 2001, bringing together local residents and visitors for this annual community celebration.

The grounds contain grass tennis courts, a skate park, public toilets, and designated barbecue areas with stones for portable grills near the refreshment kiosk.

The Jesus Green Lido spans 91 meters in length, establishing it as one of Europe's longest outdoor swimming pools, positioned along the northern edge near River Cam.
