The untold reasons why you would visit Uhuru Gardens

How often do you desire to interact with bits of nature in the busy Nairobi city life?
Because nothing beats the peace and tranquillity of Uhuru Gardens. It has green lush plains and the scattered trees with meandering murram paths.

More so It is away from the noisy central business district but not far from town. It’s a cheap and easily accessible place.
 
The field is vast good for cycling, a natural playground, and picnics. If you have kids, you can bring them along their bicycles for them to ride around.

Uniquely under the acacia trees shades fresh air sweeps your face. If you love lying on the ground like me, you can put up a lesso or a mat. Not forgetting you and set up your buffet and savor a meal,

The boring topic: history of Uhuru garden

Once you are a small heaven you will not fail but notice its historical place. Right in front of your eyes is a monument of people communal pulling the flag of Kenya up.
This is big for historians.
Do not get bogged down just some summary.

It is a commemorative park for Kenya’s independence. The memorial park dedicated to those who died fighting for Kenya’s freedom.

Review

Admit it.

Because of crows, parks in Nairobi have become a nuisance.
Trust me.

Uhuru gardens have no monkeys or crows hovering around. You can munch your food with no worry.

While it is not, always like this but remember it can full.

You might be lucky or not.

The several zigzag trails in the field speak for themselves.
 
Ooh no. this sounds sad.

Planes are taking off and landing at the nearby Wilson airport produce a huge noticeable noise. Be prepared for some noise.

On the other hand, the view of planes at a close distance offers a unique experience.
 
Final word
There is no better park than this in Nairobi. Especially in the evenings, it is a perfect place for watching the sun finally set.
