Het Park, Urban park in Scheepvaartkwartier, Rotterdam, Netherlands

Landscape architects father and son Zocher designed this public recreational space in 1852, transforming it into the largest green Rijksmonument in Rotterdam.

The park functions as a central venue for local events, where artists and poets regularly present their works amid natural surroundings.

Local residents actively maintain both a vegetable garden and an animal garden adjacent to the main parkland, demonstrating community involvement.
