The park is located along the bank of the Volga, the longest river in Europe.
The layout of the park is designed to leverage its position on the riverfront to provide natural ventilation and river views.
Balakhna, where the park is situated, was historically known as a major center for salt production and shipbuilding in the 16th and 17th centuries.
