In the most central part of Alytus found its place the city's famous gardens (Eng. Sity Garden), which is famous for its roses. Sal began planting trees, starting from the thirties of the twentieth century. To this day I came built in doubling time of a fountain with a small pool. It is here that once bloomed beautiful lilies and goldfish swam. Next to the fountain can be seen very rarely found in Lithuania European yew, and in spring delight the eye white Japanese magnolia, so clearly burgeoning pre-war near the fountain. In total, the City Garden has more than 16 kinds of a wide variety of trees and shrubs.

The famous City Garden smoothly into the spa park, and the total area that connects these two well-known and popular place, is known as Freedom Square named Angela. On this square stands the Monument "Angel of Freedom", which was originally planned to build another in 1928 - at a time when there was 10 years of independence of Lithuania. The author of this sculpture is the Lithuanian sculptor Antanas Aleksandravičius. After her lightning strike in 1934, the sculpture was broken, but was again restored in 1991.

The park is located many beautiful footpaths which measure decorate different shapes and sizes of sculptures, and lead to the famous Lake Daylide, has recently formed in the ancient riverbed of Nemunas. The lake Daylide in the summer, the fountains, and very close to them, created and equipped beach with wooden bridges. In addition, it has a lovely boathouse, and a lifeline.

Throughout the park runs the famous Path of Health, which runs along the railway embankment, created in the 19th century. The trail of health is the most favorite and popular destination not only for cyclists, but I am for walkers.
