President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov visited the park that stretches from Turkmenbashi Avenue to A. Novai Street in the city centre to see the progress in reconstruction.
The French construction company Vinci performed full-scale reconstruction of the city park. The project designers tried to combine the oriental decorative features with the classical architectural motifs.
The park occupies a total area of about 170,000 square metres. Of them, green areas cover over 86,000 square metres. In addition to 1,225 old trees, 5,700 trees were planted. Over 250 ornamental shrubs of different varieties joined existing 7,000 shrubs in the park.
Fountains occupy an area of about 4,000 square metres. The biggest fountain has the bowl 690 square metres in diameter. It offers a view of Magtumguly Turkmen State University building. The monument in honour of the 10th anniversary of independence of Turkmenistan adorns the park esplanade on the other side, near the Government building.
Lighting design of the city park deserves special mentioning. Over 900 lamps and light bollards installed along the central esplanade and alleys and multiple-colour fountain lights will create festive sparkling attire in the dark hours. Some sections of the city streets adjacent to the park were reconstructed.
The park blends well with the architectural ensemble of the city centre, making the administrative core picturesque and harmonious.
President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov recommended using multiple colour fountain light equipment in the park. Parks as important structural units of urban landscapes perform several functions, including environmental and cultural ones, and therefore every element should ensure that people can recreate, amuse their leisure and enjoy the surrounding beauty in the park.
The President said that the effective use of landscape design and floral arrangement methods was an essential factor for creating an attractive image of the city, emphasizing that this sphere should be brought to the highest professional level in our country in the context of ambitious urban planning activities, taking place in the capital city and across the country.
