About
The urban park was one of the legacy projects of the FIFA World Cup 2010. The area is adjacent to the Cape Town Stadium and has stunning views of both the stadium as well as Signal Hill. Lovely place to bring the kids to excercise or to have a picnic. It is also a learning experience for young and old. The garden is separated into ‘People and Plants’, ‘Wetlands’ and ‘Discovering Biodiversity’. The park hours are from 7 to 7 with visible security.

Walking around with my nine year old nephew made this interesting venue such a joy and great memory. He was my tour guide and learnt so much from a previous visit - i was so impressed with his knowledge.

Just love this park. It is not just a place to relax, socialize or do sports, but also highly educational. A convincing argument is made for the necessity to maintain biodiversity. "Some plants have medicinal qualities" yet to be discovered, to name just one. For city folkes to learn where the vegetables in the supermarket came from is another positive effect. The park also is instructive on history and the interaction between man and nature. From the San and the Khoekhoen to the present.

A great public area! Suitable for every type of person. Its a massive park with a bunch of different zones for different attractions. It's got green spaces for kids, different ammenties and places to exercise. You can find some great views and spaces. It's also close to the promenade, restaurants and shops. It's quite central and is close to some of the other interesting spots Cape Town has to offer.

Locals like to go to this park to walk. I went there with the family. My of my! They have landscaped the entire place. Looks like a first class botanical garden, and it's right in the city.

Very nice park minutes away from the Sea Point area. You can see the Green Point Stadium. The park is safe, clean and tidy.

Is there a rental for the seating area / pergola's circling the central picnic area? I can't find prices online, nor how to reserve them. Or is it first-come-first-serve?
