When we arrive in Sukhumi, I walk in this park with my dog. No one supports the park - everything is in a fading state. Although for sure the park was wonderful before - but despite this, there are charming large magnolias and it is cool there in the intense heat. The disadvantage is a lot of stray dogs, and quite large ones, you need to be very careful. You definitely shouldn't come here intentionally - it's more like a square, not a park.
I had a rest in Sukhumi in September 2023, the weather is good and the Abkhazian nature is very inviting, greenery, lots of plants, the park is good - although the buildings destroyed are a little sad,,,
It's the best thing for walking) Not very many lanterns and benches in the evening. Therefore, it is better to walk in the daytime. But there are a lot of fireflies in the evening
The nature in Sukhum is simply beautiful! There are many beautiful, exotic trees in this park. Wonderful aromas fill this place. The air is clean and humid. The atmosphere is wonderful. It is very good to walk through this park and think about high matters or the meaning of life. But as always in Sukhum, you can't do without a fly in the ointment, or rather not even tar… The paths in the park are broken. Not a penny has been invested since the collapse of the USSR. The trees have lifted the asphalt that was once laid with their roots. You need to walk carefully so that you don't lose your teeth when thinking about the beautiful…
It's small, neat, but there's a lot to do. It's nice to take a walk. It's not hot. There are not enough benches. But it's clean. You can get away from the hustle and bustle. Quietly
We visited Sinop Park in August 2022 and in August 2023. It can already be called a park, since there are not even elementary benches. Although a year earlier there were still a couple of shops.
Very beautiful and quite old trees. A very green place. There is a small bamboo grove at the end of the park. The park itself is not big.
I do not recommend walking on it at night and alone.
I recommend a walk through Sinop Park for a one-time photo shoot.
I do not recommend visiting! We went to the park with my husband in June 2022, walked along the main path and turned around to the exit, but a young man (apparently a local) clung on, began to ask questions in a rather cheeky tone: do we live here, does our dog walk next to us, are we on excursions. He was not alone in the park, there were still men in the distance. Then he called my husband away from me and explained that they could make "bookmarks" under the guise of tourists, and asked to show a photo on the phone, my husband opened the photo and several more tourists came into the park, at that moment he said goodbye to us. Honestly, I'm scared, he's obviously far from a policeman, it's not known how the story would end
It used to be a great place. Now the owner's hand is missing, as indeed in the whole of Abkhazia. Everything is in disrepair. Cows are walking, which scared my wife a lot. They just came out of the bushes unexpectedly
It's better than going to the botanical garden of Sukhum! There is a cork tree, magnolias and many other things. In Soviet times, he was on the territory of SFTI
They would have made a boarding house at the institute, and attached a park to it...It's kind of forgotten.It makes no sense to go for a walk here on purpose (small) and if you live nearby, then it's fine.

I like to walk here – old plane trees leaning towards the sun like huge flowers; old magnolia, bushes-ferns-palm trees. A bamboo grove framing the shore of a mountain stream – stream in sunny weather and a rumbling menacing and dirty stream after rain.
