Park of the 30th Anniversary of the Victory in Krasnodar

The Park of the 30th Anniversary of the Victory is the most picturesque park in Krasnodar. It is on a peninsula between the Kuban riverbed and its small backwater. One can enter the park by Beregovaya Street in the south. However, it will be more convenient to enter it by the Bridge of Kisses in the north of the park.

In the south of the Park of the 30th Anniversary of the Victory there are many amusement rides, as well as playgrounds for active sports. The central and northern parts of the park are memorial. There are many military exhibits there, such as: the submarine, the Alley of Memory, the Museum of Battle Glory, and many various monuments devoted to the war time. 

The open-air museum called «The Weapon of the Victory» is around the Museum of Battle Glory. Over 40 units of the military equipment of the Great Patriotic War are on display there. There one can see tanks, self-propelled vehicles and guns including the famous 200 mm «Stalin`s sledgehammer» and many other weapons.

As far back as the 1930th the park was a waste near the river but in the 1970th it was decided to beautify that place. There were planted many trees and in 1975, during the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the victory, the park was opened. 

In the north of the Park of the 30th Anniversary of the Victory there are a lot of various cafes, both within the park area and on the river embankment. In the park there are also zones with grills for picnics where one can cook meat for himself.
