Kozhedub Park, Recreation park in central Sumy, Ukraine.
Kozhedub Park is a recreation park in central Sumy stretching along the Psel River. The grounds feature open green spaces planted with a diverse mix of trees and shrubs.
The park was founded in 1933 and named after Ivan Kozhedub, a celebrated fighter pilot. He earned three Hero of the Soviet Union titles and became a key figure of World War II.
Wooden sculptures and a memorial stone for pilot Ivan Kozhedub stand throughout the park. These pieces help visitors connect with a celebrated local figure.
The park features a city beach, Ferris wheel, children's playgrounds, and sports areas spread across the grounds. You will find multiple activity options no matter where you walk.
Local residents call this place the Adult Park to distinguish it from neighboring parks like Druzhba and Kazka. This unofficial name reflects how people view the different character of each green space.
