• Two halves across the Mittlerer Ring, so pick your side: U6 and bus 63 stop at Westpark (east), tram 18 at Stegener Weg (west)
• Water playground near Heiterwangerstraße, plus a barrier-free playground elsewhere in the park
• Beer gardens and grill zones: Hopfengarten and Wirtshaus am Rosengarten serve food, or bring your own to the marked barbecue areas

Westpark is a 60-hectare park built for the 1983 garden show, with artificial hills, two lakes and a rose garden of 20,000 roses. The western half holds a Thai Sala, a carved wooden Nepal pagoda and Chinese and Japanese gardens.

Kids can push the 1.8-ton spherical fountain by the southeast entrance, splash at the water playground, and run the wide meadows. The Mittlerer Ring splits the park in two.
