Vijfhoekpark, Public park in Zaandam, Netherlands
The Vijfhoekpark spans across an area featuring a large pond named Beundersbraak, surrounded by walking paths and natural landscapes with abundant vegetation.
Established in the 1960s, the park was designed as a recreational buffer zone between residential areas and the industrial Achtersluispolder zone of Zaandam.
In 2004, the North Holland province designated Vijfhoekpark as a monumental park, recognizing its importance to the local community and environment.
Visitors can access the park through parking areas located between Wibautstraat and Thorbeckeweg, with multiple entry points around the perimeter.
Since 1988, Scottish Highland cattle roam freely throughout the park, maintaining grass growth naturally and creating an unusual urban wildlife experience.
