Näsi Park, or Näsinpuisto, is a beloved green space nestled on the shores of Lake Näsijärvi in Tampere. This park provides a serene escape from the urban bustle, inviting visitors to unwind amidst its natural beauty. Established in the early 1900s, the park was built on what was once bare rock, using dredged soil from Mustalahti harbor. Today, it boasts a diverse collection of plant species, including rare specimens, rock garden clusters, and striking boulder walls. Notably, the park is home to Finland's largest Prince Poplar tree.

The park also features historical landmarks such as the Milavida Museum, housed in a palatial residence built in 1898. In 2017, a lookout pavilion was added, inspired by a previous structure, offering enhanced views of the lake. Näsi Park also has a maze and intriguing playgrounds.
