This playground is worth a visit.

A big sand area for the little ones and some bigger slides, climbing things and roundabout for the bit bigger ones.

Lots of trash around the edges of the place but relatively clean inside.
Lots of options for kids to play. Neat and clean park.

Superfijne plek in/aan het groen van de Botanische tuin, kleine oase vlakbij het drukkere Noordstation
Beautiful
El parque se ve maravilloso pero deberían avisar al igual del parque botánico sobre el horario ya que no hemos podido disfrutarlo por este motivo más que unos minutos :(
Классная детская площадка
There is some discussion here about the kids area and sand pit but the truth is that my kids had a blast and didn't want to go home. So the target audience approves this playground very much.
Magnifique

Je suis un peu moins strict que le commentaire précédent. Je vais reprendre certains points puis en énumérer d'autres:
- la structure en béton au milieu du sable 😅 ma fille grimpe bien mais vu que c'est du béton il suffit qu'elle glisse et se prenne la mâchoire dessus et c'est bobo, donc non merci.
- les tubes ont fonctionné avec moi
- la fontaine à eau a fonctionné
- tremplin propre et plaine globalement propre aussi lors de ma visite
- les structures en bois avec le grand toboggan, c'est correct. Les cordes rouges en dessous elles servent à quoi ? 🤔
- bcp de bancs

Voilà. Dommage en effet si des parents y fument mais ça c'est pareil avec toutes les plaines. Pour moi la meilleure du 'centre' reste celle dans le parc royal.
One of the only playgrounds in the touristic city centre. Opened finally after year(s) of waiting. It has 4 swings, a big slide, big sand box, trampoline, sound-tubes.

Sometimes, I feel the person who designed this playground has little idea how children play.

There is a series of sharp concrete columns in the middle of the sandbox - crazy (my daughter hurts herself each time jumping on it), no jungle gym (climbing frame), the wall-climb areas are too shallow to climb and too steep to run, the trampoline is made of slippery plastic, the sound tubes don't really work, the ropes are "unusable", the water tap is still faulty, and so on. We were disappointed when we discovered these problems during the first weeks, after the long months of waiting.

I find it would have been much better if they keep it simple, and put in just the traditional things that children need: lot of swings, more sleigh, wide and big jungle gyms, and a (safe to use) sandbox.

As for cleanliness, unfortunately many parents coming here smoke and throw away the cigarettes, the bottom of the trampoline was full of trash at the opening, and young people come in to drink and throw away bottles. Please, if you come here, put your trash in the bin.

All in all, this playground could have been the jewel of playgrounds in the city centre. Instead, we only come here when we are short of time, and want to stay nearby. As for children, of course they have fun, as they have fun everywhere.

I can give three stars, but it is with goodwill...

Update:
Water finally works! :-)
After about a year of regular visit: our original complaints about the design remain unfortunately.
What we miss the most is the possibility to close the gate - small children run out to the street easily.
