This is a historic place, an old park in the heart of the city. He absorbed the energy of many generations of Shymkent residents who went there to dance on the outdoor dance floor in the 60s and 70s, to watch pop performances on the stage right next to the central circle in the 80s, to ride Soviet attractions that were there in the form of boats... Oh, what a place it was. And the fact that all the students of Lenin School 8 ran there at recess, after lessons, and needless to say. This park still harbors the spirit of the fertile and peaceful Soviet era, when the city was the chemical capital of Kazakhstan, where 120 enterprises worked, including Europe's largest phosphorus, huge and one of the first in the country lead, as well as tire, hydrolysis, brick, oil refining, tire, asbestos cement and others. The workers of these factories, who made up the main population of the city, rested in this park in the evenings and on weekends. The place is very iconic and significant. And in the 90s the entire population of the city went to Russia, Germany, Greece, Israel, and the Park remained. And it's a good thing that it has not yet been turned into a disgrace like Pioneer Park, which is now called Ken Baba and is a pathetic spectacle of shameful entertainment instead of the majestic statues and statues that were there.

The Central Park pleases citizens and guests with its cleanliness, well-groomed and abundance of greenery. Lots of fountains. A place of relaxation and family pastime: there is a chess club, plenty of space for cyclists and scooters
