Great park where locals go to practice sports. Good to have a coconut water or açaí at the end of the afternoon.
This is a big park that has a lot to offer for everyone from young to old. Plenty of space to stretch out and not be bothered by anyone. Park has Running and Bike trails from 4km to 10km long. Plus, about 4 different restaurants to choose from and an Amusement Park and a Mini Formula One Go Kart track. Park has plenty of shade to sit under during a lazy warm afternoon and from time to time concerts from Jazz to typical Brazilian music.
It´s funny to think that the largest urban park in the world isn´t Hyde Park in London or Central park in New York, but Parque da Cidade, in Brasilia of all places. It is part of my childhood and there is a park with a rocket which is a trip back to the 70´s. Nicolândia, an amusement park which has just gotten a new ferris wheel. I run there at least twice a week and love to see that there are always people riding their bikes, playing with their children, the smell of popcorn in the air always brings me back to my childhood and now I love to run the 4km, 6km or if I´m on a good day the 10km paths. This is one of my favorite places in Brasilia.
It is not the biggest if you count all the reservoirs that are located surrounding Brasilia, however this is a recreational park, great for jogging, running and riding a bike. You can stand up paddle in the lake , or just stay put to watch the beautiful brasilia`s sunset.
A nice spot for recreation. Features the park itself with the lake, places for sports activities, an amusement park and kart
Brasilia's city park is an amazing and huge green area right in the middle of the city. It is one of the world´s biggest urban parks.Though I would not recomend a night walk (as drug related violence may be a problem), the place is pretty safe during day time.There are toilet facilities (quite good, indeed, considering Brazilian public toilet standards), snack bars, restaurants, basketball courts, soccer fields, jogging tracks and also a roller coaster equiped ammusement park.Sunscreen is advised.It is definetly a must see.
The City Park is a nice place to go running, walking and biking. It is wonderful for children to be outside on a picnic or just to drink coconut water and other refreshments. There are nice green areas, full of trees, for romantic couples. It is wide and fltat which allows for a magnific view of the Brasilia special blue sky. I highly recommend it.
Fantastic runing/biking/rollerblading trails with signage and restrooms. Super clean, green space that even has a moini amusement park! Highly recommend if you're looking for an active break to your visit. 5k/10k/8mi loops in the park that's I think slightly larger than NYC's Central Park.
A park in tribute to the wife of the city's founder is itself littered with artwork and sculptures and architectural contours that thread through the city
Park is HUGE, awesome paths for biking, walking, for kids to play. Work out stations placed thru out the park. Sitting areas, shops to buy a drink (non alcohol) sit and enjoy watching the ducks.
