    Fajuyi memorial park 🏞️🏞️🏞️ is a place that honor the memory of one of Ekiti Heroes. It's a beautiful place to relax, hangout with friends and family. Very close to the flyover along High Court, Basiri, Adebayo road

    I brought my niece and nephew to this park from Ire Ekiti hoping to find fun activities for kids but was disappointed. The facility is in bad shape and there is no playground for kids anymore. It's now more like a place that people come to drink and eat in the evening. What's left of this place is just the name, Fajuyi Memorial Park. The space is small but it could at least be made attractive. The gate should be locked if the intention of the government is to make it a monument, and visitations should be stopped.

    Cool place but not a place I can take my kids to as it is in the center of a major road with little or no security. The kids play equipment were mostly rusty and therefore out of use at the moment. The place Lacks supervision though

    Nestled in the heart of Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria, Fajuyi Memorial Park beckons visitors with its unique blend of history and leisure, promising an intriguing and fulfilling experience. This park stands as a living tribute to the late Lieutenant Colonel Adekunle Fajuyi, an iconic figure in Nigerian history, whose legacy continues to shape the nation's narrative. As visitors enter the park, they are immediately enveloped in a captivating atmosphere. The carefully manicured lawns, the lush greenery, and the beautifully landscaped surroundings provide an inviting backdrop for exploration. Families gather here for leisurely picnics, friends engage in meaningful conversations on the park benches, and couples take romantic strolls along well-maintained pathways. At the heart of Fajuyi Memorial Park lies a monument that pays homage to Lieutenant Colonel Fajuyi. This striking tribute not only preserves his memory but also serves as a focal point for contemplation. It stands as a symbol of his immense contributions to Nigeria and a reminder of the sacrifices he made for his country. It is here that history comes alive, where the past is beautifully interwoven with the present. Yet, the park offers more than just a place for reflection. It provides an opportunity for an engaging "ride cruise" experience. Visitors can choose from various modes of exploration, whether it's a serene walk under the canopy of trees, a leisurely bike ride along the winding paths, or a captivating journey on a tour tram. This "ride cruise" allows visitors to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the park while learning more about its history and significance. In essence, Fajuyi Memorial Park is a captivating destination that seamlessly weaves together history and recreation. It invites visitors to delve into the intriguing story of Lieutenant Colonel Fajuyi while enjoying a delightful ride cruise amidst the park's serene and natural splendor. This park stands as a testament to the enduring power of memory and the timeless allure of a place where history and leisure harmoniously coexist.

    If you're feeling stressed and looking for a great place to dine, consider visiting Fajuyi Park in Ado Ekiti for a delicious and budget-friendly meal

  • 2/5 Fedayemzo O. 8 months ago on Google • 58 reviews
    A memorial park that doesn't live up to expectations. It's not well maintained and the bars occupying the location aren't showing much eagerness about making the place a hive of entertainment and relaxation. Most of the table attendants aren't cordial and prefer to sit and watch tik tok on their mobile devices,than to attend to their patrons. This is definitely not the place to visit if you have the desire to relax and have some fun.

    A nice park in the city of Ado Ekiti where you can relax and have a good time with your loved ones

  • 5/5 jide f. 2 years ago on Google
    The most visited tourism destination in Ekiti-State. Situated in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, in memory of the late Col. Adekunle Fajuyi, the former military governor of the Western region who was killed along with General Aguiyi Ironsi during the first military coup in Nigeria, the Park is home to the final resting place of the late soldier. Tourists who are interested in researching Fajuyi’s heroic exploits always find their way to the place. The Park is equipped with a fountain, game archade, children playground, mini-museum/archival centre, restaurant/bar and GSM telephone booths for visitors and tourists. The place is suitable for meetings, religious retreats, social ceremonies, events, occasions, political rallies, seminars/workshops.

    Fajuyi memorial park is a recreation park in Ado Ekiti, its a really nice place. I visited this place at a festive period, so it was really bubbling and exciting, I don't know if its always like this on every other day. There's an open bar, fun area for kids, center tower, round water ways, eatery, canopy trees you can sit under etc. It is located strategically in Ado Ekiti.

    This is a place in the heart of Ado Ekiti in Ekiti state. It is a place to be. It's very close to the government office, the fayose bridge and the pavilion. It is opposite NTS event center. The place is serene and conducive. Well aerated with good secured parking space. The place is also children friendly.

  • 4/5 Olalekan Augustine M. 1 year ago on Google
    The most popular public pack around. Managed by Motif Fun land. It's a place to be for picnic, seat out, meet out, get together and children party. Furnished with enough facilities to make your program fun filled and delightful. The night life is also incredible with drinks of all sorts, barbeque, asun, suya, nkwobi, assorted meat, snacks and a lot of others to lift up the your mood. However, these stuffs are slightly expensive here compared to other places but you're sure to enjoy your stay here both in the night and day. Large cinema TV is also available to give you those cinema vibes.

    Fajuyi memorial Park is cool for hangout, meet out, get together, recreational point both for adult and kids. It's a bit risky for kid because of its' location between divergence road in the state.

    Would have been a nice hang out spot if it were properly managed. It is very easy to locate as it is basically at the heart of the state capital.

  • 4/5 Iyanu O. 2 years ago on Google
    The popular Fajuyi Memorial Park in the heart of Ado-Ekiti is one of the tourist attractions made prominent by successful governments in Ekiti State, and is meant to boost the Internally Generated Revenue of the state. The Park was built to serve as the last resting place in honour of the late former governor of the old Western region of Nigeria, Colonel Adekunle Fajuyi, who was also an indigene of the community. The park needs to be renovated and put to better use.

    Fajuyi Memorial Park is at the middle of a major road though surrounded by traffic lights. It is non - functional at the moment , there is a functional bar for relaxation just in the park. The park can be used to locate places in Ado Ekiti. It is close to Old pavillion
