I stopped by a beautiful park – so serene. Also, on my way out, I grabbed some fresh fruits

Loved this place. My kids especially loved this place. Lots of space to run around d and play. There's a walking/jogging trail. They also have bathrooms. It's probably wise to bring a blanket to use on the lawn. The scenery is extremely nice, too. Good for taking photos. Parking g can be a little tricky as there aren't a lot of parking spots. Loved it, though. Really peaceful area with lots of space to play and relax.

Bob Marley's birthday celebration held at emancipation Park was just amazing!!! Really great job by the Hon. Olivia 'Babsy' Grange, Minister of Sports, Youth, and Culture for putting the show together. The Park is large and well-kept and was filled on the night of the event. Thanks for the amazing lineup 🙌

Parque muy tranquilo en Kingston, gente haciendo ejercicio, familias reunidas, no se puede tomar alcohol ni hacer mucho ruido.
