The six-hectare park located in Xuan Thoi Son Commune includes a square, a tourist service zone, a sightseeing area and supporting facilities.

Work on the VND70-billion (USD2,978) project started in December last year and was completed on May 18. The park is expected to provide a public space for locals and help to boost local tourism growth.

HCM City’s hot weather is an issue as the newly-planted trees at the park cannot provide sufficient shade. Therefore, visitors are advised to bring their own sun protection items.

Many children are taken to the park by their parents.

Le Trung Dung from Binh Hung Hoa Ward said that it is only 10 kilometres from his house to the park. So it is convenient for him to bring his children.

The park is also home to an outdoor swimming pool, a sports zone, and parking areas.
