It's in the west part of the city, but let me tell you it's worth a visit...especially if you have kids. To wet the appetite, here are a few of its amenities FOR FREE:\n\n- A really good playground built like a castle\n- A zoo\n- Gardens \n- A labyrinth\n- Running paths\n- Plenty of open space for picnics\n\nOn top of it, they have ponds, restrooms, etc.\n\nTruly, if you love nature and want to escape the city, grab a book and head to High Park. If you miss the city, walk over to Roncesvalles Street for a plethora of restaurants and cafes."^^ . "2018-06-05T00:00:00"^^ .
