Yuzhno-Primorsky Park

Yuzhno-Primorsky Park, Public park in Krasnoselsky District, Saint Petersburg, Russia

Yuzhno-Primorsky Park is a 58-hectare park in Saint Petersburg's Krasnoselsky District, bounded by the Peterhof Highway, Dobletsi Street, Marshal Zakharov Street and the Dudergof Canal. Its southern regular section has alleys of spruce, fir, linden, oak, elm, horse chestnut and weeping willow, while the northern landscape section resembles a piece of forest. Two artificial ponds joined by a canal contain small islands, and a children's town features large elephant, crocodile and turtle figures by sculptor Anatoly Kiselyov.

The park was laid out between 1960 and 1970 for the centenary of Lenin's birth by a team led by architect A. G. Lelyakov, on a site that had been a swamp beneath the Littorina terrace. In November 1999 the 28-metre "Sickle and Hammer" monument was destroyed by blasting during de-Sovietisation. In 2005 the entrance inscription "100 Years of V. I. Lenin" was replaced with "60 Years of Victory".

The park was named after Lenin until 1992, when it took the name Yuzhno-Primorsky. At the entrance, a monument inscription reading "100 years of V. I. Lenin" was replaced in 2005 with "60 years of Victory". A children's town holds large figures of an elephant, a crocodile and a turtle by sculptor Anatoly Kiselyov.

The park lies between Peterhofskoye Highway, Dobletsi Street, Marshala Zakharova Street and the Dudergof Canal. The regular southern part has straight alleys of spruce, linden, oak and elm; the northern landscape section resembles forest. Two artificial ponds joined by a canal contain small islands, and a children's playground holds Anatoly Kiselyov's large elephant, crocodile and turtle figures.

A restored fountain near the main entrance displays the colors of the Russian flag through its lighting system. The light display is particularly visible in the evening hours and was rebuilt based on designs from earlier times.
