The historic park is the largest green area in Bucharest. Mainly willows, maples, ash trees, poplars and lindens grow there. The park was established in 1936 around Lake Herăstrău, which covers almost half of its area and is available for rented boats.
The park is divided into two parts - open and closed. In the latter, you can visit the Village Museum for a fee, where you can see original, traditional farms transferred here from all over the country. Inside the museum is also the Elisabeta Palace, the current residence of the Romanian royal family.
The area where the park is now located was formerly covered with swamps. They were dried in the years 1930-1935, and then a park was established on them. Interestingly, its name changed several times and usually referred to the political system. The place was already called: National Park, Charles II Park, Stalin Park. Only the modern name is apolitical and refers to the topography of the park.
