Lenin Garden, Cultural heritage park in central Ufa, Russia.

Lenin Garden occupies the slope of Cathedral Square between the Governor's House and the site of the demolished Resurrection Cathedral. Its layout combines straight alleys, two fountains (North and South), and monuments to Alexander Matrosov and the Civil War dead. A memorial stone at the entrance marks the Declaration of State Sovereignty of Bashkortostan, and four steles to its right display the republic's awards.

The park began in 1867 as Ushakovsky Park and was initially restricted to the nobility. Over time, its name and character changed to reflect Russia's shifting political landscape.

Majit Gafuri, the Tatar and Bashkir poet and folklorist, was buried here in 1934; his grave is a stop for those following Bashkir letters. The memorial at the Revolution and Civil War burial site names only two of the dead, Shagit Hudayberdin and A. M. Cheverev. The park's own name has shifted with each era, from Ushakovsky to Garden of Freedom to Matrosov to Lenin.

The garden sits near the seat of government of Bashkortostan and the academic theater, and visitors can access it throughout all seasons. The layout allows exploration at your own pace, with various sites to visit distributed across the grounds.

The memorial at the burial site names only two of the dead: Shagit Hudayberdin and A. M. Cheverev. The Tatar and Bashkir poet Majit Gafuri was buried here in 1934; his grave is often confused with the 1951 Matrosov statue, which was moved away in 1981 and brought back in 1989.
