Brasapark, Urban park in Amsterdam-Zuidoost, Netherlands

Brasapark extends over 3 kilometers on top of the Gaasperdammertunnel, connecting Nelson Mandela Park with Gaasperpark through walking and cycling paths.

The construction of this green space began in 2013 with extensive planning, leading to its official opening in March 2022 above the A9 motorway tunnel.

The name derives from the Surinamese word 'brasa', reflecting the strong connection with the local Surinamese community in Amsterdam-Zuidoost.

The park features accessible playgrounds, urban sports facilities, water taps, benches, and dedicated areas for barbecues and community gatherings.

Engineers designed specific drainage systems and selected particular tree species to ensure successful growth in the shallow soil above the tunnel structure.
