Yuri Luzhkov Park, Protected park in Nagatino-Sadovniki District, Russia.
Yuri Luzhkov Park is a public green space in Moscow featuring pathways for walking, play areas for children, and dedicated zones for sports and movement. The grounds include a skateboard park, a staging area for performances, and recreational facilities spread throughout.
The green space opened to the public in 1989 as a recreational area for the neighborhood. In 2021 it was renamed to honor a former Moscow mayor whose tenure shaped urban development in the city.
Veterans Square serves as a gathering place where locals enjoy performances and community activities throughout the year. The space reflects how this park functions as a social hub for the neighborhood.
Public transportation connects easily to the park, with metro stations nearby providing convenient access. Bicycles are welcome with parking areas available, making it easy to explore the entire grounds.
The park features a substantial skateboard area that attracts riders from across the neighborhood. An art installation of an apple tree positioned along one of the walkways adds an unexpected creative touch to the grounds.
