A very well equiped park, there are restrooms, picnic sites, benches, big trees, and a lake with birds. The sound of this forest is perfect to take a time out from the noisy city.

A museum and family oriented park. Right off the metro with plenty of places to eat and vendors selling water and sodas. Lots of kids and field trips come here

This park is a family favorite.

First, it's huge and it feels like there are endless corners and playgrounds to explore.
Second, there's always something to do...the handful of museums (some are free and others are a luca or two), a 'train' that takes you around the park ($1.000), the splash park, bike/trike rental ($150 a minute) and various kids activities like trampolines and watercolor painting (not free, but not expensive).
Third, it's not a new park, so it's full of beautiful old trees and interesting architecture all around.
Last, it's one of the easiest parks to get to; the metro dumps you out at the entrance, where you can grab some cheap street food before you head inside.

This park seems to have everything, it's home to four museums with several other just outside the park. It is a Big Park with a small Boating Lake, an Athletics Track, Tennis Courts, a Swimming Pool. Lots of trees and places to sit in the shade. Nice place for walking or jogging. It was very quiet when I visited during a week day, daytime. I found it reassuring that the police patrol this park on motorcycles, perhaps after some incidents of robbery, but I felt quite safe.

Amazing city park that offers up all the necessities. From a large amphitheater with street artists singing and dancing for tips, to hundreds of street vendors selling delicious snacks and treats while others sell toys and trinkets. There's a small pond that allows paddle boats and lots of empty space to walk around enjoy the greenery and get away from the concrete jungle outside. Multiple fantastic museums located within the park also make it a great spot to spend some time.

A nice big open park with mature trees. A lovely oasis in the city. There are museums, fountains, a swimming pool, etc.

Nice place with a lot too see and seems to have a nice pool. Didn't go. A couple of museums and in general a nice "clean" park.
