Reviews of Victoria Park
"beautiful scenery Victoria Park is a fantastic location for cycling, walking, and running. On the field, you can practise your exercises or play games. The lawn is neatly mowed and looks great. There, you might witness squirrels and birds. A lovely green area may be found just close to the University of Leicester campus. The majestic memorial arch, constructed to honour the First World War fallen, serves as the park's focal point. The lovely wrought iron gates at the Peace Walk and London Road entrances to the parks, as well as the arch, were created by Sir Edwin Lutyens."
"Beautiful nature! Victoria Park is a fabulous place for walking, running and cycling. You may also exercise or play games on the field. The grass is cut, it's clean and nice. You may see birds and even squirrels there."
"Great place to walk, jog, cycle, exercise and for picnics. The whole area is very well maintained and has proper tracks for cycling and walking. There are designated places for football, basketball, cricket, skating and open air gym."
"A great place for some quality family time. Rugby, football, multiple play areas, monuments, lovely old trees, big grassy areas lovely views and in a nice part of Leicester. Haven't been here for years but after taking my boys, nephew and niece there today I'm looking forward to going back again!"
