Looks like a pleasant park in central Miraflores, but could not be visited due to measures to contain corona. You could walk around though. Especially the flower beds looked nice!

Kennedy Park and June 7th Park are the neighborhood oasis in Miraflores. Craft fair, food vendors, flower gardens and lots of stray cats. Bordered by Miraflores City Hall and Iglesia Virgen Milagrosa. Worth a visit.
