A great green space with a nice 500 meter track, lots of history, friendly people and security. I visited a couple times and at night and always enjoyed it.
Went most mornings for a jog during my Christmas stay at the Courtleigh. Security was present so felt safe and the other joggers were pleasant too.its nice that they have the sign posts that measures the distance you have jogged or walked. Would probably go for more regular jogs if I had something like this close to home. My son was intrigued with the naked statues of a make and female and still talk about this as the highlight of our morning jogs.
great place in middle of kingston to chill and culture intake. This is where corporate life go to jog and people come to chill in jamaica. clean and well kept park. Near by are jerk center and amusement for kids and golf course and the Pegasus hotel. ice cream. U can take in sone music at bandshell and shows go on here for free in reggae month.
Scenic Garden which provided a safe place to exercise and relax. Opens early and closes late which is very convenient
We have been in Jamaica for most of the month and are in Kingston right now. Emancipation Park is the quality of and park in the U.S., BUT NICER, it is emaculatiely maintained...beautiful gardens, a wonderful walking, running 500 k track that goes around the park, with lots of people using it! There are plenty of guards present to make you feel safe and a lot of people present. There are placks around to share the historical reference of the park that add to ambiance. Emancipation Park is a must enjoy, in my book!
It was okay, good place to eat and meet some friends. Walk or exercise that was great and close to where I lived.
Unlike the Sir William Grant and the Nelson Mandela parks, you can actually hang out here. It has a nice feel, not so overrun with beggars or the homeless and feels much safer, even at night. There are always people there and it's well lit. Love this park! The park is well maintained and is a national treasure.
I liked the happy atmosphere in the park with children having fun; students studying and having discussions and the overall happiness that I encountered there.
When you see the art work, it makes you feel better about being a jamaican. The park is lovely, nice scenery and even a nicer atmosphere.
Very lively, bustling and safe in the middle of the city. Great place to exercise (walking or running). Or you can just sit back and enjoy being in a Kingstonian Oasis.
