Very classy park in Leipzig
The Palmengarten in Leipzig is a true gem among the city's many parks and green spaces. One of the standout features of this lovely park is its pathway that runs alongside the nearby river. Walking along this path is a truly delightful experience, with stunning views of the water and the surrounding trees and vegetation. The pathway is well-maintained and provides a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
In addition to the pathway, the Palmengarten is home to many valuable and unique trees, many of which were sourced from the botanical garden's tree nursery. The park is also a great place for families, with several play areas for children to enjoy.
One particularly magical experience is visiting the Palmengarten during a full moon. The path beside the river is illuminated by the moonlight, creating a truly enchanting atmosphere.
Even in the winter, the Palmengarten is a wonderful place to visit. The pathway is transformed into a snowy wonderland, and visitors can enjoy building snowmen and taking in the serene beauty of the park.
One interesting feature of the nearby river is the Palmengarten weir, also known as the Elster weir. This historic structure was built in the early 20th century to regulate water levels in the river, and it remains an important part of Leipzig's water management system today. Visitors to the Palmengarten can observe the weir and learn about its history and significance in the region.
There’s one small pond and fountain (unfortunately not operational right now) present at the middle of the park.
Though the park is very clean sometimes because of irresponsible park visitors you will see overflowing of bins or plastic bottles in the pond.

Peaceful and beautiful, is the right place where to chill, play sports, juggle (the jugglers community meet here). One of the places that deserve to be seen in Leipzig
