        • The park is called a landscape park because of its elevation changes — up to 30 meters.
        • It was laid out in 2003 to a design by Mosproekt-3 in the canyon of the Baryshikha river.
        • The Great Volokolamsk Road ran here until it lost its importance in the 17th century, when cargo began going to New Jerusalem.
        • The Vskhodnya nature reserve in the south of Mitino brings together 32 archaeological sites.
        • Sobyanin opened the renovated park in late summer 2018.
