Парк культуры и отдыха имени Ленинского Комсомола, Central recreational park in Makhachkala, Russia.
The park spans 30 hectares in central Makhachkala with multiple pathways and planted areas throughout. Trees, shrubs, and open spaces create a mix of shaded and sunny sections for visitors to walk through.
The Weiner brothers established the green space in 1887 near their brewery and called it Weiner Garden initially. It was renamed to its current name in 1963.
The central alley holds the Eternal Flame, War Glory Museum, and Walk of Fame with portraits of World War II participants from the region. These memorials shape the park's character and tie it to local memory.
The park is bordered by several streets and has public transportation stops providing access from different neighborhoods. Visitors can explore the pathways during daylight hours and find amenities throughout the grounds.
Ten burial sites of notable political figures rest in the northwestern section, which sparked proposals for a local pantheon. These graves are often overlooked but represent an important part of the site's historical significance.
