Millennium Park Abuja is the largest of the green areas and parks in Abuja covering a land area of about 32 hectares. It is located in the Maitama district of the federal capital territory. The Millennium Park was commissioned in December 2003 by Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom.

Millennium Park was conceived and designed by an Italian architect Manfredi Nicoletti, and it has become one of the main attractions of Abuja.

Millennium Park offers a good spot to walk the dog or come for a picnic. Evenings are especially nice to enjoy the beautiful lights at the park.

Parking is plentiful and the park’s entrance is off the Three Arm Zone road.

The park has a narrow river running through its centre and the remains of what was probably more extensive riverside woodland clinging to its edges.

The river starts in the distant hills and many of the birds in Abuja use it as a corridor to get from one area to the other.


Millennium Park offers visitors opportunity to savour the freedom and freshness that nature offers.
Especially during the weekend when there is the need to relax, visitors can frequent the garden.

A typical visit to the part at the weekend, most especially on Sunday is thrilling.

There are ongoing plans in the pipeline to expand the park with projects to include the millennium tower, cultural centre and a museum that will house a broad collection of African arts.

Millennium Park has a small river that divides it into two parts by bisecting its main rectilinear axis.

One side of the Millennium Park consists of unspoilt nature, brushwood as well as greenhouses for butterflies and tropical birds.

The other side is dedicated to the scientific knowledge of the natural environment with its very traditional and rigid Italian Style Garden Layout.
Millennium Park also has series of fountains run alongside this white mark refreshing the public during the hottest days.
The roads are crossed by a series of multi-coloured bushes going from yellow to red with a very particular wave-like course.

Millennium Park is a pretty good place to bird. Places like millennium park present good opportunity for bird lovers to see different species of birds in Abuja.

When next you visit Abuja, do not hesitate to make millennium park part of your experience in Abuja.
