Categories / City Topography/Green Areas/Gardens, Orchards

VYAZEMSKY GARDEN is situated on the Aptekarsky Island, on the left bank of Malaya Nevka River, at the corner of Pesochnaya Embankment and Vyazemsky Lane. It was laid out in the first half of the 19th century around Princes Vyazemsky estate (hence the name). It is 3.5 hectares and its paths are both straight and circular. Today its vegetation consists mainly of poplars. Originally it had a landscape design; it is now used as a recreational area.
