The park was established as part of a government initiative to reclaim and protect riverbanks from illegal encroachment.
The project serves as a buffer zone to help prevent soil erosion along the banks of the Buriganga.
The development is part of a larger, long-term master plan to improve the ecological health of the Buriganga River corridor.
The park's location provides one of the few unobstructed views of the river traffic moving toward Sadarghat.
Buriganga Eco Park is a protected green space situated on the southern bank of the Buriganga River in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The park serves as a conservation initiative designed to restore ecological balance along the riverfront. It features walking paths, landscaped gardens, and seating areas oriented toward the river. The site focuses on riverbank stabilization through vegetation and native tree planting. It provides a rare public outdoor recreational area in the densely developed Keraniganj vicinity.

Bring insect repellent as the riverfront location can attract mosquitoes, particularly toward dusk.
Visit during the weekdays to avoid the high density of local weekend crowds.
Ensure you carry adequate drinking water, as facilities within the park are limited.
Avoid visiting during the peak of the monsoon season when the riverbanks can become muddy and the path accessibility is reduced.
Modest clothing is recommended; avoid littering as the park is a conservation site.
