The National Park — Attraction in Bucharest

Small and nice park. Look for electric bumper cars as they have an affordable price, about 1 euro (5 ron) for a 3min ride. The small electric cars (at "nea' Ion") next to table tennis are a good deal as well. The rest of paid attractions are too expensive for their quality and experience. If you are into local fares (small exhibition of crafted goods ) you shoud visit it during national holidays or the weekend with major church holy days. You will find all sorts of hand made slippers, fur coats, hand made jewellery, and of course a lot of grills and barbecues. This days are to be avoided if you are looking just for a nice and quiet walk. There are plenty of parking spaces available on both streets that the park has access to. For a quiet (and pretty expensive) coffe you can have one in the restaurant in the middle of the park or on a terrace on a side of the park. For regular quick bites or drink you have two small shops in the park near electric bumper cars. There are couple ecologic toilets so in case of majoor need you will have an option (the best option is to have a coffee in the restaurant or terrace and use their restroom - small price for civilisation and running water). Take care that all the above does not apply for the 20% of the park near the parachute tower / national arena entrance. Everything described above you have it on the opposite side of the park. Of course in the park you will find public table-tennis tables, fitness equipment, chess tables, two kids playground, and small and large dogs compound to let...

Small park with potential. The authorities do not maitain it properly. The sidewalks are cracked and tilted as the ground ahifts towards the lake. The lake water is very dirty in some parts. Vegetation is not cared for. The island cannot be reached because the bridge is badly damaged and even if one reaches the island, it is full of garbage. The park has a nice summer theatre, but rarely there are events here, as no one is able to organize quality cultural events here. The pros are that the children playgrounds have slings and other play furniture and the tarmac is well kept. There are chess benches that are shielded from wind. Also there are special areas for dogs. Please put some more effort in maintaining this park as it is one of the few green areas in the neighborhood. Looking forward to the...

It was better in my childhood but still a nice place.to walk, jog, mountain bike watch birds in the lake. There is a tennis court, never seen it open though. Fine in winter to avoid crowds. No more boats with oars and puppet theater. A plus - now it's fish in the lake - ducks, gulls and swans are visible - crows ar following you invade their park. To avoid - some wooden cabins selling cheese puffs and candy canes that look 3 years old. The park traded names - Used to be August 23 (everyone shortened it to Park 23 now it is National - None very inspiring - could have been called Coravu like the street it is bordering it. Or the...
