The Moinho de Vendo park is huge! It's free, for the family, for the pet, for everyone. There's plenty to walk around, there's a lake and there's a bridge to cross to the other side of the park. Excellent for picnics, for example.

The park is nice, with toys for children. It's good to take children to play in the playgrounds. However, I didn't see anything special, I thought it was a POA tourist spot, but it's just a park like any other. The part of the lake was closed, so there was no mill.

I´d say it could be considered a great square, more than a small park. Anyway, that is a gorgeous and lively place, right in the middle of one of the most charming nighborhoods of Porto Alegre. There is a weel conserved big green area and a beautiful lake as well as much to do there, both for those looking for sports than for those who need to relax, children, teens and adults.

We lived in an apartment over looking Moinhos de Vento Park and so enjoyed the view night and day. We spent lots of time enjoying the park, relaxing, reading a book, people watching. In the nice weather, on some weekends, there were food trucks in the park and that was enjoyable, especially for us as Canadians to see the familiar food truck scene. Rua Comendador Caminha, a short quiet street lining one side of the park has a few nice restaurants and bars, especially the pizza restaurant on the corner.

Embarked on a boat trip on the river and decided to have lunch. The tour lasts an hour and the scenery is interesting. You can see some beautiful villas along the river. The lunch was good

A pleasant park to walk. Had a good time, taking nice pictures, watching people practicing sports, etc. A small park, but silent and beautiful. Recommended.

Moinhos de Vento Park is a beautiful park. I went there numerous times for evening walk while I was in POA. You will find people jogging, walking with their dogs or with a cuinha in their hands. Its a nice place to experience the day to day life of the locals of POA but definitely not a tourist attraction. It is a good place to relax for a while or go with kids or pets. It is located in one of the posh neighborhoods - Moinhos and you can head to Padre Chagas for some coffee or drinks after spending some time there.

Especially on weekends the park gets quite full and people are enjoying with their families and friends a stroll, artists, artisans or simply doing their weekend jogging run. For children they even have a small library which unfortunately righty now still is closed.

This was the jockey and then an empty field where there were two football pitches where I played when I was young. Now, it is gorgeous park with lots of people walking, running and playing sports in daylight hours, not very big but quite nice.

This is a very spaceous park, my husband enjoyed doing his jogging at the area, nice shades from trees too and lots of benches to rest.

Na verdade o problema passa longe de qualquer necessidade de autorizacoes do qualquer entidade que lida com a preservacao em Porto Alegre.
As únicas razoes, ditas pelo Diretor do Parque sao:
a falta de interesse do municipio, a começar pelo burocrata incompetente que infelizmente dirige o Parque; e a dita falta de recursos pra a obra que consiste em arrumar o telhado que apresenta vazamentos e consertar a rede telefonica e o piso superior, cujos danos se originaram justamente pelafalta de controle dos vazamentos que ocorrem quando chove. Nada que um pouco de competencia e interesse nao resolva rapidamente.
