๐Ÿš— Route on 2GIS

Shaded pathways, flower beds, and benches just a stone's throw from Khan Shatyr โ€” a small green oasis amid the skyscrapers of the left bank, where visitors come to stroll in pairs, take photos, and simply relax by the fountain.

History

The park was opened on July 6, 2005, on Capital City Day. Its central attraction is a fountain in the shape of sixteen interlocking horseshoes, unveiled in 2007: the concept and sculpture are the work of Austrian Princess Gabriela von Habsburg.
