Gorky Park is a public park in Minsk, Belarus.
It is located near the Victory Square and the Yanka Kupala Park.
The park was established in 1800 under the name Governor’s Garden. During the Soviet times it was renamed "парк культуры і адпачынку імя Максіма Горкага" after the famous Russian/Soviet writer Maksim Gorky. Parks with this name have been established in many cities of the Soviet Union.
A part of the park’s territory is occupied by an amusement park with a 56-meter-high Ferris wheel. It also has an educational observatory with planetarium.
The Ice Palace is also located in Gorky Park. President Lukashenko, known for his hobby of ice hockey, frequents this place, at which times the access to this part of the park is closed for general public.
