Samara is considered a clean and beautiful city.The abundance of park areas and green squares smooth out the general impression of industrial facilities and strict business centers. And if we talk about the oases of the city, then one of the most cozy among them - Strukovsky Park. Samara can boast more well-kept squares or playgrounds with an abundance of attractions, but it is here that a special atmosphere is felt, thanks to which I want to return to this place again and again.
This place is unlikely to appeal to those who loveride on carousels and extreme attractions. The park is a truly green zone, where peace and quiet reign more often. This is a favorite place for people who want to relax from city bustle and noise, young parents with children and sportsmen. The main riches of the recreation area are alleys with well-maintained paths, and the main decorations are murmuring fountains, various sculptures and flower gardens. In this place it is nice to organize a picnic, go on bicycles in the summer, and in winter - on skis, or just walk alone or with a company of pleasant people.
One of the most interesting objects in the recreation area -fountain, located near the central entrance to the park with a sculpture of children under an umbrella. It wears the romantic name "Boy and Girl", built in the 1930s. In the period of the USSR, as already mentioned, the recreation area was called the Park of Culture and Rest. Maxim Gorky. Despite the name change, the original monument to the great writer stands here still, also near the central entrance. An unusual attraction of the park is a stone grotto, on its top there is a gilded sculpture of a goat. Minor changes in the shape of the Strukovsky garden occur annually, not so long ago there appeared green sculptures of Moomin-Troll and chess figures. For each warm season in the park there are new flower beds, benches and gazebos.
Strukovsky Park (Samara) is best suitedfor walking and sports. There are no large rides here, but from time to time in the recreation area mobile moon parks stop. There are children's playgrounds. And the real pride of the park is a platform for skaters. In summer, various trading tents operate on the territory, where you can buy soft drinks, ice cream, various ready-made snacks and fast food. For sale in the park are also souvenirs and children's toys. There is also a summer stage in the Strukovsky Garden, on weekends and holidays there are various concerts, dance evenings, festivals. Watch out for posters and ads in regional newspapers, and you will not miss a single interesting event.
Центральный вход в зону отдыха располагается на crossing the streets of Kuibyshev and Krasnoarmeyskaya. The nearest public transport stop is called "Palace of Pioneers", there is a bus number 61 and route taxi number 247, 61D, 261. If you forget where you need to go, or go to the garden for the first time, do not hesitate to ask someone from around, where is the oldest park in Samara. This place is known to every inhabitant of the city, and you will be prompted by the road. On a private car it is most convenient to go by the navigator. Try to enter in the search for the program: "Strukovsky Park (Samara)". The address of the garden is also not difficult to remember: Krasnoarmeyskaya Street, 2.
One of the newest and most unusualsights of the park - a capsule of time, left by journalists of Samara for descendants. The supposed autopsy date is 2057, the place where this artifact was buried, today stands for the corresponding memorial plate. What is particularly pleasing, anyone can absolutely visit this pleasant place for walks and recreation - Strukovsky Park (Samara). The history of the garden includes periods of its heyday and decline, but invariably at all times it remained the beloved green zone of the townspeople. The rules of visiting the park include prohibitions on the walking of dogs, drinking alcohol and smoking, property damage. Visitors to the recreation area can take their own drinks and snacks for a walk or purchase them at local cafes and tents. Forbidden in the park any actions that violate the laws of the Russian Federation and interfere with the rest of those around them. There is also a penalty for discharging garbage in areas not intended for this purpose. Every visitor to the garden should understand that it depends on his behavior that the Strukovsky Park will be tomorrow. Samara is a modern city, and each of its residents and guests should have a civic consciousness and take care of the surrounding nature and places for recreation.
