    On Saturday March 5, 2022, around 4pm , my son was robbed, 3 men approached him: they put a knife around his waist and threatened to hurt him... they stole his cell phone and cash... my son is only 19 years old. Please be very careful in this area and alert the police. My Son travel to Medellin for tourist and visit places. It is painful that this happened to my son.. I am so grateful to GOD that he made it back to home.

    I come here daily to have lunch and I love the peaceful energy. You can find restaurant King Kong on the other side of the park on the corner.

    Lively neighborhood (they kept us awake couple of nights). The park itself is nothing remarkable. But it's filled with locals of all shapes and sizes day n night. Just sit there for a while and you'll get an honest view of Medellin social life. It might look rough but we never felt unsafe and met mostly gentle people.

    A wonderful place to buy a coffee from one of the vendors, sit down and watch the people walk by and the pigeons play in the birdbath. Across the street is another park with a museum of Medellin memories. Great place to relax.

    It is one of many neighborhood parks that they have here. It is fully utilized with people selling items like food and trinkets. It is a pleasant place to stop and rest

    Boston park is a traditional neighbourhood's square, with a Church, benches, old people feeding pigeons... You may also find at night street food. I recommend the "arepas rellenas". Nothing special to do at the square more than looking at people's daily practices. 🤓

    It has been neglected by the Mayor's office and it lacks of enough space for the people.

  • 4/5 David Q. 4 years ago on Google
    I lived close to it for 3 years and it was one of my favorite places. You can find good food in the park, although I'm not a fan of eating at the food trucks or kiosks. There are a few bars and pizza places about a block away,which is a good option to spend some time. I usually go there by sundown because the heat can sometimes be too much.
