Nizhny Novgorod has a «Switzerland» of its own, which is one of the most famous and popular parks in the city called «Shweitsariya». Made in 1903 by Nizhny Novgorod high school students and their teachers, this is one of the largest parks in Russia.
You can spend your whole day here and have a great time: appreciate the uniform style of the park’s pavilions, visit the Children’s Center built in the shape of a doughnut, let your children have fun in the ultra-modern playground, take a walk in the arboretum, go on the swings in the gazebo, visit «Planetarium № 1» with its huge dome, where you can sit and work in a co-working space or read books in the local library and, of course, find some privacy along one of the park’s numerous pathways.
