Arkādijas Garden Park, Public park in Zemgale Suburb, Latvia.

The Arkādijas Garden Park extends across a natural landscape with multiple paths, bridges, and cascading water elements connected to the Mārupīte River.

Initially established as a private garden in 1808, the park transformed into a public space in 1896 when the Riga City authorities acquired the property.

The park contained a wooden stage for musical performances constructed in 1911 by architect Pauls Kundziņš until its destruction by fire in 1927.

The location in Zemgale Suburb provides multiple entry points and walking paths suitable for recreational activities throughout different seasons.

The redirection of Mārupīte River through the park grounds created natural waterfalls and required the construction of small connecting bridges.
