Recreational Features

The most unique feature is the long zipline that runs across the park, which attaches to a swing. It also consists of space-themed architecture, such as a rocking spaceship and an astronaut bubble. There are various climbing structures, slides and running ramps.

Another unique feature of this playground are the digital activities! Families are invited to download a special app where children can download and play online games. This component allows kids to develop digital skills under the supervision of their parents.

Visitors will unmistakably be able to see the thoughtfulness behind each separate structure at the park.
