Overview

The park covers an area of 400 acres and was formerly a large sugar estate. It was later purchased by Governer Ralph Woodford in the early 1800s. He later donated the land to the city. The savannah is one of the island's foremost centres of activity. Many of the city's largest buildings have the savannah as a backdrop. The pitch walk that encircles it is a haven for fitness enthusiasts and those out for a leisurely stroll. The Queen's Park Savannah is also the location for many of the country's most exciting events, including Carnival and other cultural and international concerts.

Relaxing picnicby Yahoo | 2007-12-18 01:50:04 |

We loved this savannah. It's a great place to take the kids for a picnic after visiting the botanical gardens which is nearby. Fresh coconuts are sold right on the perimeter of the park as well as other street vendors. It's a great place to spend a relaxing day!

A must see for people who likes Victorian architectureby Yahoo | 2005-08-08 21:34:31 |

The Queen's Park Savannah is huge, and in its sides it has very beautiful and colourful old buildings, that the government try to preserve, in fact some went under restoration and some are in restoration. Is a good place to drink Cold Coconut water, is good for jogging, walking.... or just to see the beauty of the nature and enjoy the birds singing.
