"This park is on the east side of Yuzhno, just down the hill from the ski center and near Glory Park. I visited this several times during the time I was there and found something new each time. There is an amusement park for kids, a lake with paddle boats and alcoholic beverages for adults, and a w..."alking path thru the woods for exercise. There is also a train that runs around the park for those that don't want to walk. Most of the amusement rides are typical, but some are unique (for example, canoe rides for children, jet skis for children, etc). The paddleboats are beautiful swan boats.
Since most people live in apartments in town this is a great place to relax and take the kids after work, so it was normally pretty active.
Also, across the street from Glory Park was a souveneir shop, the only one I saw.

"A great place to have some fun when in Yuzhno-Sakhalin.
There is a fun-fair fairground type area which is great for the kids, there are lots of kiosks and bar/restaurant facilities where on can buy drinks and food (mainly shashlik), a word of warning there have been a few instances of people compla..."ining about sore tummies after eating shashlik in the park.
In the evening some of the bar/restaurants provide music and many of the people take up dancing under the stars.

"Gorniy Vozduk is a large hill in Yuzhno Sakhalinsk, about 500m vertical drop, with 7 ski runs (2 on the back, 4 on the front and 1 new one this year I think) a mix of beginner and intermediate difficulty.
There's a gondola on the west slopes (often a long t-bar tow rope is running as well) and a..." t-bar tow rope only on the south slopes - be warned that this t-bar takes about 20 minutes to the top so can be quite challenging for the beginner boarder. There are a couple of rental places for skis and boards, lessons for the kids, and quite a lot of in area off piste (tree skiing) as well as access to some out-of-bounds backcountry.
There are a few cafes to get a hot drink and something to eat, and there is night skiing most evenings on the west slope. The hill is typically closed on Mondays for grooming.
The hill is also great for mountain biking and hiking in the summer!
