Gorky Park of Culture & LEISURE

The new / refreshed Gorky Park is quite simply the greatest park / public space I have ever visited in my life.  Cannot explain how awesome it is.  Official Name is Gorky Central Park of Culture and Leisure.   What a fantastic name.   Culture AND LEISURE.   Never miss it if you visit Moscow- NEVER !!   Such a warm young energetic vibe here, tons of sport activities, bike rentals, dancing groups/lessons, daybeds, rollerblading, river cruising, a huge forest to the side, people watching, incredible restaurants (16 of them), kids areas, museums onsite, ponds, paddle boats, hip bars, good music, white sandy beaches, cafes, etc etc etc etc.  Gorky Park is so incredible that it has its own newspaper.  Oh yeah, and admission is free.
