After spending the morning in the city we were glad to find some peace. We first spent an hour or two walking around the lake, we ate traditional Romanian sweet snacks, stopped to take photos and admire the views. Parking was only 1.5 lei per hour. We then hired a pedalo for 10 lei and went out onto the lake.... More

The park is big and the lake definitely makes the place more relaxing and escaping the "city fast life". During the holidays there are a lot of nice events and thematically activities.

I've been here twice. The park has some lovely areas with flowerbeds and fountains, and my favourite thing is hiring a rowboat, which cost the ridiculously cheap price of 5 lei (£1) for an hour.

Having many great memories from the Herastrau park as a child, I really wanted my daughter to see it and enjoy the lovely scenery . May is the best month to be there. Lovely flowers and great place for a beautiful walk.

Very nice, big and green park. In the weekends or holidays it's crowded. In the week days you find very young and very old people enjoying a peaceful place.
