Tunde T.★★★★★ — Amazing destination, a well preserved UNESCO world heritage site. Perfect for historical visits, family and nature time and connecting to our deep Yoruba roots.
Adeyinka A.★★★★★ — Easy to locate and cheap entry fee (500 naira as at today 12th Ocotber, 2024). We had to pay 1,500 naira to take our phones in for a group of 5.
It was so fun visiting and listening to the history about this place. The serenity of the atmosphere, the rich leaves filled trees and the monkeys jumping are a sight to behold. Pictures does not really do justice.
If you're a fan of historic places, this is a must visit
sanusi Z.★★★★★ — It's a fun land!!! Very very conducive environment to wear off stress and have a great time. It's has great facilities for kids to have an unforgettable experience.
Tajudeen A.★★★★★ — At the core center of the prestigious Osogbo city. It is also a mere stone throw from Osogbo Railway Station. Surprisingly, it is very near to the newly constructed Osun Mall which houses Justrite Superstore and a host of other businesses. There's no much problem being here because it is also near the banking area.
OLUSOJI A.★★★★★ — Though it started small at the at the popular old garage in Osogbo, today, it is s a long expanse of sprawling beauty, spanning a huge land mass from the old garage through old Ile Epo Olaiya to the old Fakunle in Osogbo, giving the sleepy town a new look expected of a city.
This long stretch beautifully sculpted and designed, encapsulates the culture, history and essence of what Osun stands for in a modern and standardized mode. Welcome to the Nelson Mandela Freedom Park, a recreation spot that can be described as an unraveling profile in tourist beauty.
Though the area was part of the central business district, it never enjoyed the beauty and attention of that should characterize a city center; it was previously synonymous with ramshackle structures, destitute and beggars and car parks as well as street traders long the edges of the road, proliferation of miscreants and hoodlums and a very dirty and haphazard arrangement, giving the place the look of a ghetto.
Today however, the recreational and aesthetic beauty of the park is a testimony of a huge turnaround in planning, beautification, aesthetics as well as cultural history and social facilities, making it a regular point of call for different classes of citizen and creating an opportunity for a night out in a safe environment among the people.
Indeed, to people that had not visited the town for a while, it is easy to get disoriented as the old ile epo Olaiya and old garage that is the first stop for many coming into town is no more the plain area that they know; there is an obvious and consistent change in the look the area wears and Osogbo is quickly shedding its ancient toga and is rapidly metamorphosing into a modern city.
Oluwatobi A.★★★★★ — It was a beautiful place. I love the fresh air and the trees. I also loved the equipment there for children to play with.
Why I am not giving a 5 star is because I didn't appreciate the fact that someone was smoking there. The smell affected us where we had our hangout, and I feel that there should be some regulation as regards this.
All the same, it's a great place to hangout and just have fun.
Folaji M.★★★★★ — This park is okay for family or friends hangout provided you want alone time, some of the facilities at the park needs to be repaired or better still changed. A ticket fee of #300 per person will be paid at the entrance plus #5000 if you are going in with food or going in for picnic. Please know that if you are going as a group, each person will pay the ticket fee of #300 and you still have to pay #5000 as a group.
