IGA Park, Urban park in Schmarl district, Rostock, Germany.

IGA Park spans approximately 100 hectares featuring Chinese and Japanese gardens, a sandy beach with water sports facilities, a two-kilometer barefoot path, and diverse recreational areas designed for visitors of all ages.

Established in 2003 following the International Garden Exhibition, IGA Park was developed to preserve original lowland areas while incorporating renaturalized waterways into the surrounding landscape design.
