    Amazing Park in the centre of phnom penh. Very large open space with sculptures and monuments. Lots of people roller blading or going for walks along the park.

    Beautiful square and sitting arrangements in the middle of Phnom Penh. There are some restaurants on both sides.

    Great park - lots of people doing sports, often you can see some exhibitions here (at least during my 2 weeks stay I saw 2 :) ) Totally recommended for visit at sunrise as a part of your route

    A nice park commemorating the Cambodian and Vietnamese friendship. Has a beautiful statue in the middle of the park. To me it feels more like a square with greenery than a park.

    So happy to be a first-timer here, the place did not disappoint me. It's nice to walk, jog, or even cycling in there. Can also bring your pet there🥰. We also had a mini picnic there. There's a lot of shops where you can buy food and drinks. We had so much fun❤

    I went to this park to meet 20 of our (Cambodian Children’s Fund) nursery kids - all 3 years and under - and it was so fun. First time outside Steung Meanchey (for the toddlers, not me).

    In desperate need of maintenance. Kids love it but dont see the broken slides, loose rubber tiles on the floor and broken steps. It's a great shame that it hasn't been touched since it first opened as it would be a great facility. Now it's dangerous in someplaces.

    Nice place to walk through in a very busy city. Generally clean. Places to sit down. Unfortunately, you are likely to be stopped every 30 seconds and asked if you want a tuktuk - the drivers are very persistent sometimes, which spoils the place.

    It is a park on Sothearos Boulevard, near Cambodia - Vietnam Friendship Park. It has fountain, green grass and hardened floor for walk or jogging track. This is the place that is usually used for cremation ceremony of the Royal Family. In normal day, many people use this place for jogging, exercise and dancing for exercise.

    There was a concert in the evening. Nice to chill by the fountain. Need seats under trees for very hot weather.

    Absolutely beautiful wat. Friendly people, even let me look inside a newly constructed pair of Pagodas that wasn't open to the public yet. In one of the temples, there is a wax figure or mummy of a monk...I am thoroughly unsure about if it is actually wax or a real human being. Went there 2 times and still wasn't sure. 🤣🙈

    Beautiful park with a lot of afternoon and evening activity. Youngsters love it. Skating and dancing/ gym on music, playing soccer in small teams or just friends meeting

  • 5/5 SEREY T. 2 years ago on Google
    There is a park where located in the middle on the Phnom Penh and we can enjoy jogging and have fun with family and get fresh air.

  • 4/5 Sopharin K. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place to bring kids to play and we can do jogging.

  • 4/5 Angsophea E. 1 year ago on Google
    Came here to watch the world cup 2022 fifa. It's spacious and open area with lots of space. Not much green but a little grass and that's it. It's a good skating ground as it's spacious and have ceramic tiles around. Some people come here to have picnic on the few grass that's here because it's an open area with nice view and wind, being near riverside.

  • 5/5 Sophat C. 2 years ago on Google
    great place for refresh & excersice

  • 4/5 SENGHUO L. 2 years ago on Google
    The park here looks good. It's a nice place to relax with a ton of fresh air. You may play some sports like badminton, skate and riding a bike, or just sitting and enjoy chatting with friend or family.

    I talked about the Cafe. First, no menu. They asked you to come to the counter reading the wall menu. Then they charged 1.99$ for a hot matcha tea instead of 1.5$. Still ok, right? Then they asked you to pay now. Still o.k., right? Then you asked a glass of water. They said they only sell water. Then you said ok. They brought you a small bottle of Osani and asked you to pay right away 0.5 cents while you get it for half a price outside. Then you went out, and they didn't even look at you or saying thank you. If you like such a place, it is a go-place. I will never go again until I might hear they improve. Plenty of cool cafes in Battambang you can enjoy, so why this one?

  • 5/5 Bram W. 3 years ago on Google
    Great for a run in the evening or to relax during the day.

  • 4/5 Jenny S. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place for children to chill out and seeing friends, however there is no proper maintenance. A lot of items start to break down and a bit dirty with the wastes of plastic every where.

  • 5/5 SOTHEABOTH L. 6 years ago on Google
    Play free at kids play ground update with new equipments. Bring your kids here during early morning and evening.

  • 4/5 Teresita C. 9 months ago on Google
    It's fun to come here at night, there are groups of people dancing, the group near Naga World side mostly are teenagers and young adults while the other group were on the opposite part. You can join dancing if you feel like doing some cardio and meet some new friends....

  • 5/5 Rahul C. 11 months ago on Google
    Environment fresh air and lot of space u can enjoy but most of kid gather here to hangout so it's abit noisy

  • 5/5 Soudaphone C. 5 years ago on Google
    Public play ground for children.

  • 3/5 Tessa J. 6 years ago on Google
    Such a fresh air but the play ground so dark

  • 5/5 JK R. 1 year ago on Google
    Nearly the only public space in all of Phnom Penh. It is well used. Lots of exercise, major events, ordinary people walking and exercising.

  • 4/5 Serena T. 1 year ago on Google
    I find it pleasant to walk around n let my 2 doggy kids roam free there...I usually leave my moto n walk across the street from Independence Monument Park n do a loop before heading back...

  • 4/5 MAIDALIN K. 4 years ago on Google
    The park is crowded every evening but worth to spend there while enjoy vendor food.

  • 5/5 Mark C. 1 year ago on Google
    There aren't many green(ish) places in the city where walking is easy and appealing. This is one of them in the center of the city. It's also bursting with activity, expecting people jogging, dancing, playing badminton and so on. A great way to soak up the energy the city has to offer

  • 4/5 Sampheap S. 1 year ago on Google
    Refresh your energy, it's a spacious park for your morning exercise in Phnom Penh. Avoid biking on this area cz' you may get fined.

  • 5/5 Pierrick L. 1 year ago on Google
    I spent hours looking for a nice and local place in Phnom Penh and finally I found this one pretty late in the afternoon. It was also during Cambodian elections but they were still open so I could enjoy a fresh and homemade dish. Fair price, nothing more to add, it's just a nice place

  • 4/5 Gareth B. 4 years ago on Google
    As public playgrounds go this is probably one of the better ones. 3pm forward gives you a little shade 4pm is probably best but also more people. Bigger children and more can pose some challenges.

  • 4/5 Chan S. 1 year ago on Google
    A nice park for leisure or doing some workout. The park is nice for walking, running and cycling. There are seats that you can use for sitting around or taking a rest. The only problem is that there is not enough car parking lot which could be hard for people to drive car to visit this park.

  • 5/5 jerome h. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice olace. Cambodians are gathering here to exercise, walk, and enjoy some time with their family...

  • 5/5 CHUON P. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 boyd b. 2 years ago on Google
    Great for getting back in shape, good for kid and grandma too!

  • 5/5 Lucy C. 5 years ago on Google
    Free public space for kids to play. Clean and safe.

  • 3/5 Craig 5 years ago on Google
    It is a good space but it is obvious regular maintenance checks do not occur. Too many missing nuts off bolts for example

  • 5/5 Hoonie L. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the few open areas in the busy city where u can sit and chill in the evening or at night. In the day, it's too hot though. In the late afternoon to evening, u will see lots of people walking, or groups of friends exercising, families spending some outdoor time together. There is also a playground and exercise area in the middle of the park.

  • 4/5 Dalin B. 4 years ago on Google
    Located near the central of Phnom Penh, it's a park everyone needs. We can go there and do so many activities to relax our bodies and souls from the exhausting work

  • 5/5 Saskia F. 4 years ago on Google
    Really beautiful park to relax. It's on the waterfront, lots of food carts, green grass. Family and kid friendly, good jogging area or just to people watch (if you're like me!).
