The [[First President's Park]] is an urban park located in Almaty at the intersection of Navoi Street and Al-Farabi Avenue in the [[Bostandyq District]]. The park was opened in July 2010.

Creation of the park began in 2001. The park is broken into three main areas–the avenue, boulevard, and dendrological areas. Greenery was planted according to dendrological plan. In honor of the participation of the city of Almaty in the Olympic torch relay of the [[2008 Summer Olympics|Beijing Olympic Games]], approximately one hundred spruces and birches were planted. In 2011, a hundred Tien-Shan spruces were also planted. Plans include a set of water projects over an area of 9.5 hectares.
