Sometime last week I decided to take myself out on a treat and visit the famous Pleasure Park located in Port-Harcourt city, Rivers, Nigeria.
I spend a lot of time at my training centre where I learn to make dresses, a little bit of time in church and the rest at home. I rarely go on outings and so last week I decided the break out of the triangular movement.
I got a call from a friend and together we decided we should visit Pleasure Park.
We choose Pleasure Park because it is one of the most fun places to go in PH.
I like it, particularly because there are a lot of fun activities one can partake in.
From paintballing to boat riding to climbing, virtual reality games... You name it, you could even decide to see a movie at the cinema.
And even if you're not in the mood for any activity, it has lots of nice areas to relax with decent views.
A little bit of a Tour:
On my very first visit to the park, I went climbing. It Is this massive structure right behind me in the photo above. It was a fun but extremely hectic experience. Also, I'm a bit scared of height and even though we were strapped with safety belts that were connected to the safety lines at all, times I still felt nervous.
On this day I wasn't in the mood for such physical activity, so I just took a photo while passing by.
The picture above shows a distant view of those boarding the boat ride. I cannot swim so I honestly had no interest in trying the ride but it's definitely on my to-do list and will try it out when next I visit the park.
Then there was this train ride I would have loved to hop on but unfortunately, it's only for children.
And there is the Kada cinema. I had seen a movie there sometime in 2019. Yeah, it's been a long time. I saw the infamous Sugar-Rush. The movie lasted for about 2hrs — an action/comedy film. I think it was pretty decent, I did enjoy myself and had great company.
On our walk through the park, we met a young magician. He was into card tricks and the did a couple of demonstrations for us. It was quite exciting. The first was kind of terrifying though as I can't seem to imagine how he was able to identify the card I choose. Card tricks are something I always find intriguing.
SUYA!
Suya is traditional smoke-spiced meat that originates from the Hausas in Northern Nigeria.
I always enjoy eating Suya at the park, they are made nicely. The meat is usually always well cooked and it's very tasty.
I got some snacks and drank some juice as well while enjoying the view. Trust me it's got a nice and peaceful view.
Except when it's a significant day though. It can get crowded at times, particularly when it is a holiday.
I had a good chat with my friend as we talked about life and everything in between. I even mentioned Hive to him so perhaps he would be hoping on sometime in the future.
I tried to take as many pictures but I was carried away by the experience. But luckily I got a couple of shots in and so I decided to share them with you guys!
I hope you enjoyed the read!
And lest I forget, say Hi to my deer-friend:
I think Pleasure Park is a great place to hang out with friends and family and have fun in general. You should definitely check it out anytime you visit Rivers, Nigeria.

Looks like a huge place.. And you look tall and pretty there 😊
Yeah! It's quite a large place. And yep, I'm just about 6ft tall 🤭🤗
Man Nigeria is a beautiful place! I’ve heard a lot about Port-Harcourt. I understand it is one of the most beautiful places in Nigeria like Ghana has Accra, Kumasi and Tamale.
I’m sorry you couldn’t rude in the train, I’m sorry it would’ve been fun.
You need to take swimming lessons though. I think you’ll like it, plus, swimming is another thing you could start doing for your outings from now. I would recommend it. I’m not much of a swimmer myself, but I’m learning now and it’s really fun for me.
Charming place, good article, well written... Many wonderful photos... I loved that little train!... Lind post!

Hey there,
It sounds like you had a really fun time at the Pleasure Park. I haven't been there in a while, either. It looks like you had a lot of things to do. I've never done paintballing or virtual reality games before, but I've heard that they are both fun.
I also love the look of that train. I wish they had something similar here. It seems like it would be a lot of fun to ride around on.
Thanks for sharing your photos with us. I'd love to visit the park someday soon. I wonder what other kinds of rides there are at the park.
Thanks for stopping by dear🥹❤️. There are a lot of fun stuffs there. It’s really a place to explore
