Park of Culture and Rest, Public park in Oryol, Russia.
The Park of Culture and Rest is a green space with walking paths, planted gardens, and open areas for gathering. It offers playgrounds, benches, and boat rentals during the warmer months.
The park was established in 1823 as an early example of public recreational space in Russian urban planning. It developed into a key gathering place in the town over the following decades.
A statue of novelist Ivan Turgenev stands in the park, marking the town's connection to this celebrated writer. The space reflects how much Oryol values its literary heritage.
The park has wide, walkable paths that remain accessible even when it gets crowded during peak times. The northeastern section includes an amusement park, and nearby museums are within easy reach.
Peace Square within the park holds a World War II tank memorial that stands as a quiet reminder of the town's past. This war monument is often overlooked by visitors passing through.
