On the north-east side of the park is a ski-lift-like aerial cableway you can take a slow ride for a small fee over the forest canopy about a mile long. In summer, I rode it with Anastasia, my young translator, we had lunch and returned to the other side in about two hours. The inclosed carriages are suspended from cables. It's an unusual nature excursion for being in such a big city.

this is the only park in Ukraine of this type! Ideal lawns and landscapes in areas of several hectares, with a lake with swans, fountains. Incredible attractions for adults and children! I liked the House of Horrors from the Hollywood Horror House Company. The largest ferris wheel in Ukraine. Tennis courts and football fields with professional coverage! a real paradise for the family!

Park of Maxim Gorky is one of the most beautiful, modern and extravagant public place in Kharkov-city. If you want to spend your time at great location, which was created for people by people, you must visit this park. If you want to have fun, you would better take course to «Entertainment Center», where you can find different thematic rooms such as «Rope-park», game-zone, 7D cinema, and much more. If you want extreme, no problem, welcome to «Roller-coaster», «Tower of fall», «Catapult», «Flip», and other entertainments. If you just want to enjoy nature, than you can sit near «Wi-Fi Lake». In case, if you like animals, there is a big pet shop, named «ZOO», it has rich variety of different species of animals. Are you a cinemaddict? If you are, you will be happy here, because there is a big 3D cinema «Multiplex Park» at Park of Gorky, at which you and your friends can enjoy world cinema premieres. Ooh, you are a sportsman, it’s cool, park has lots of different sportsgrounds and playgrounds for workout, football, basketball, beach volleyball, big and table tennis, also has rolling of rollers, bicycles and bike-car. For lovers of old times or for people, who tired of modern world, park has «Retro zone» that is made in style of the 70th: it is a green zone without attractions, it has a small scene. There is a big dance floor, located in front of the scene. At this place people give small concerts and organize themed evenings. For those who loves to play table games was build the comfortable and cozy summerhouse. If you don’t know where to spend your time on high day, don’t worry, there are festivals on the main street of Park which ends with a small area, dedicated to all kinds of holidays. If you want to see city from a bird’s point of view, you’ll have to spend your money on «Ferris wheel», which height is more than 50 meters or «Cableway» with total length more than 1.3 kilometers and max height more 25 meters. In addition, park has large number of different playgrounds and attractions for different ages: for kindergartners, for pupil and for students. After a long day, if you want to eat, no problem, there are many different restaurants at the park: Italian, French, Japanese, German and Ukrainian cuisine are waiting for you. There is a lot more I’d like to tell you about the Park of Maxim Gorky, for example, it has various services such as birthdays for children, weddings, sports tournaments, excursions, but I am going to finish. In the end, I want to tell that to the you can reach park from center of city in 15 minutes by foot. I love this perfect piece of world very much and I recommend you to visit this park. Good luck have fun.

I really don't understand this culture yet... I hate artificial Disney World environment, Donats and plastic chairs. I think for Western European people not really exciting - for kids ok and could even imagine that some глупые туристы may like this. A real forrest and the countryside outside the city is nicer.

This park was such a suprise to me. It has a bit of everything in it. And with the trees were getting greener it will be more attractive as time goes on. The entertainment was varied and frequent and it is easy to while away time here without really noticing. I would rate this as one of the best parks in Europe.

I reasonly returned from Kharkiv , Ukraine. We visited both big parks , Gorky and Shevchenko parks.
We had a great time in both. Gorky Park is at the end of Sumskija Street and Shevchenko Park is next to Freedom Square , right in the centre of the city.
We also visited Botanical Gardens park in Lenine Avenue.
Kharkov is a great city to visit , hot in the summer and cold in the winter !
We booked into a hotel , which was terrible , so the then rented an apartment through Kharkov-for-rent , they were very helpful , polite and the apartment was much better and cheaper than the hotel !

Visited here on our day at Kharkiv.
Very busy due to the fact of last day of school celebrations. It was great to see all dressed in traditional costumes and everyone enjoying themselves. Unfortunately my lack of Ukraine language hindered me in ordering lunch so settled on a beer.
Great Park with plenty of entertainment.

Winter was nice with snow and minimal number of visitors. Good to stroll around after work, or weekends if you want to people watch.
