The park was established to mitigate the lack of leisure spaces in the densely populated district of Ermelino Matarazzo.
It features native tree species that serve as a habitat for local urban wildlife, particularly regional bird populations.
The project includes significant drainage and soil management systems to handle the local topography of the Jardim Belém area.
