I was not impressed with the park. Being my first time to visit Ghana and Kumasi in particular, I had read so much good reviews about the place and wanted to experience it in person.

Prior to entering the place I asked the ticket guy at the gate what I was to expect inside the park, just before I bought the ticket, and he told me it was an amusement park. With that, I went ahead to purchase tickets for myself and my brother who traveled with me.

Upon getting inside, I was, to say the least, unamused. There was nothing interesting happening inside. The pool table was old and not in good shape, the swimming pool was dirty and unclean. The children slides was small in size and I could see adults having to use it, maybe just to amuse themselves as the park isn't amusing. I also saw people having picnics there which is cool.

If you just want to have a picnic with friends and family, or just need a spot for an alone quiet time, then I highly recommend the park. However, if you're a lone fun seeker, looking for something amazing, the the place...

The structure and idea of a park is laudable, it's clean, however the choice of personnel especially the one you make first contact with aka the security at the front gate has such distasteful attitude. I'll explain. So I got there in an Uber with family intending to get to the Marriage registry office, which is located on the same property, there are several gates to enter, my Uber's drop off was at a gate marked "Marriage Registery" so got off and made it towards the gate, only to be met with hostility and a threat of body harm by a female security employee who insist we buy a ticket to access the marriage registry. If this place is the 4BN HQ, or BNI office I'll understand the hostility, but a park meant for family fun? That female employee on the Friday morning around 9.36 of the 29th of December, 2019 was waaay...
