It’s great to fly kites, play frisbee, kick ball, run around anything you can do on a flat field and as long as it’s not raining. Around the field is a tree lined street where jeepneys sand cars pass but there is a designated bike lane so people who want somewhere to ride their bikes around can also go here. There’s a side walk around the sunken garden also where joggers can jog. There are small stores around the garden where you can buy snacks and drinks (water, juice, soda). There are trash bins around the garden, too, it would be great if we all help each other keep the place clean, considering it is a place we can bring kids to, or visit for free.

It's a great place to have picnics and even join or host small outdoor activities. There are lots of food and drink vendors too so you can skip preparing or bringing your own food and drinks. Still, if you want to bring your own food, go ahead. There are lots of trash bins where you can throw your own garbage after your picnic or activities. There are lots of stray cats and dogs around so it might not be good for people who are scared of cats and dogs. Also, it's not ideal for people who need to pee a lot. Not all of the college buildings allow outsiders to use their toilets. There aren't public toilets either.

Nothing extraordinary to expect here as this is mostly used as an events ground. Plain grass but a large area perfect for events. I came here for the UP Fair which I believed celebrated here annually. Had a blast with the the most famous Filipino bands and artists. You can hang out and have a good walk around if the weather is cool. Relaxing place to just have a good chat with some friends. There are some food vendors roaming in the area, mostly snacks like ice cream, fishballs, etc.

UP Sunken Garden is a wonderful spot to relax and spend quality time with friends. The park is bustling with activity, with many people enjoying morning and afternoon jogs. As I stroll through, I'm often reminded of my own college days, observing UP students diligently working on their school projects. It's a place that holds a special charm for me. Additionally, there are conveniently located food stalls nearby, making it a perfect all-in-one destination for a leisurely outing.

The Sunken Garden is a vast, five-hectare open field surrounded by towering acacia trees that provide a natural canopy and shade. The well-maintained grass is perfect for lying down or having a picnic, and the sight of students and families scattered around enjoying various activities adds to the lively atmosphere. The perimeter of the garden is lined with pathways where joggers and cyclists frequently pass by, contributing to the dynamic and active vibe of the area.
