It's Dresden's Central Park and the "Green Lung" of the city. An ideal place for walking tours, running, relaxed biking and inline skating, reading, meditation, playing in the grass, having fun with your pet, admiring statues and historical buildings, grabbing a bite or going out to a restaurant, watching birds at the lakeside, going to concerts, taking the small park train operated by children, going to the Zoo or Car Manufacturing museum at the park corners or just sit on a bench and enjoy the lush scenery. A place to go in spring and summer, a quiet place to retreat to in winter.
