Simferopol Children's Park

Simferopol Children's Park is a sprawling space with playgrounds, amusement rides, and planted areas designed specifically for families with children. The grounds are divided into different sections connected by pathways that lead visitors through various play zones and green spaces.

The park was founded in 1958 as the first dedicated children's recreational space in the Soviet Union, giving it a significant place in the region's leisure history. Its creation marked a turning point in how specialized recreational spaces for young people were approached.

The park includes themed sections with installations that reflect local stories and traditions through their design. Visitors walk through these areas and notice how cultural references are woven into the landscape for families to experience together.

The park sits in central Simferopol with straightforward public transport access and is open daily for visitors of all ages. Pathways throughout the grounds are accessible and allow families to move easily between different play areas.

The grounds hold an ancient oak tree called 'Bogatyr Tavridy' that is hundreds of years old and protected as a natural monument. Visitors often pause near this tree as it draws attention for its age and connection to the land's long past.
