The wildlife of this park  is rich, varied and unique despite the proximity of a big city. It hosts 100 species of birds. About 50 more species make their nests there either in winter or summer or during their migration period. Twenty-five species hatch in the park more or less regularly. They are bittern, grey duck, oriole, woodpecker. The birds of prey are a good indicator of environmental stability. The more numerous they are, the better ecological systems function. In this park seven species of birds of prey make their nests, for example, blackbird, osprey, hobby falcon, buzzard. Four of them are listed in the Red Book.

Парк был основан в 1832 году и ранее назывался парком Челюскинцев. Он занимает общую площадь около 150 гектар. По преданию, раньше тут выращивали корабельные сосны по указу Петра I, и даже сохранилась одна, посаженная лично императором.

Это место является памятником культурного наследия как объект ландшафтной архитектуры. Традиционно территория рассматривалась под дачи, сады, лодочные станции — именно такие увеселительные заведения возникали в парке. Сейчас парк — отличное место для прогулок и отдыха горожан. Здесь есть стадион, база футбольного клуба «Зенит». Зимой заливается каток, а в восточной части можно найти аттракционы, в парке постоянно проходят спортивные соревнования. Кроме того, при парке есть бельчатник, где кормят с рук птиц и белок.

The park is set on the shore of the Gulf of Finland in the North-West of the city.  The green area of 91 hectars is separated from the public beach by a granite embankment alongside the seashore. A wide alley guides you from the main entrance to the granite column 22 m high built in the form of a lighthouse. From this place one may admire the panoramic view to the gulf seascape and the anchored passenger cruise liners. The 300th anniversary of the city was marked by planting a number of decorative apple and lime trees. Today the citizens come here to play volleyball, do skating, cycling and kite-surfing (in case of fair wind), there are some children playgrounds and skate parks. The park is a venue for the annual Maslenitsa feast celebration. The biggest indoor water park in Russia called Piterland is located next to the park. The park is situated on a raised beach. Some 30 years ago it would be the floor of the Baltic sea.
One may distinguish the dome of the Naval Cathedral of Kronstadt – the city on an island that used to be in important fort in the previous times. Bring your badminton rackets and a Frisbee to spend some good time in the open air.
