Less known than that of the Tête d'Or or that of Parilly, the park of Gerland is yet a green lung between the banks of the Rhone and the facilities of the Matmut Stadium. In the south of the city, this park is also called Confluent Park, offering natural continuity to the banks of the Rhone, or even privileged access to the Confluences Museum. Created by the landscape architect Michel Corajoud and inaugurated in 2000, this 18 hectare park occupies a former industrial site which has been preserved a building to house the Maison des Fleurs where you can discover all the natural interest of the famous Megaphorbiaie, the park's garden-promenade composed of 18,000 plans of 300 different species, water lilies, trees and vast lawns. A park naturally focused on sports activities: children's games, skate parks indoor and outdoor, carousel… You can also see many ducks in the canals or an astonishing chromatic garden that lights up in the evening.

Grand parc coupé de la ville et très bien aménagé. On peut venir y manger en groupe et laisser les enfants jouer dans les aires de jeux adaptées. Parc très bien entretenu et surveillé

Small park, for relaxing, being quiet, not too large in size but well maintained, and with birds

Très grand espace varié. Une grande pleine en herbe, un skate parc, un potager, des jeux d'eaux, des coins ombragés au bord de l'eau...
Peut être le point de départ ou d'arrivé d'une ballade à vélo en passant par les quais aménagés avec piste cyclable ou voie piétonne.

Le Jardin est excentré du centre ville et des centres touristiques. Cependant s'y promener ou y pique niquer à coté des canards est très agréable. Il y a un restaurant au milieu.

Endroit très plaisant auquel on peut accéder à pied par les berges du Rhône depuis le centre-ville ou Confluence ou en tram (T1).
J'apprécie la variété des espaces sur une aire somme toute pas gigantesque, la proximité de l'eau, le côté nature urbaine "pas trop apprêtée".
J'ai été surprise de découvrir récemment autant de jeux pour les enfants et là encore, autant de choix.
