Well-kept park in New Kingston, Emancipation Park is a haven of tranquility in an otherwise lively city. You can come here for relaxation, a jog, but also to have a look at the Redemption Song statue.
The sun was on its way down when I approached the northern entrance of Emancipation Park. Cars were honking their horns, stuck in a traffic jam. Another working day was coming to its end, and people were on their way home. I decided to enter the park. Right at the entrance, a big sign informed me of how I should behave and what I should, and should not, do. One of the activities only allowed with prior permission was to do sports, but right at the entrance I saw a jogging track following the outline of the park, on which joggers and walkers were exercising. I crossed and walked the main lane cutting through the park. Unfortunately, the fountains and channels in Emancipation Park were all dry, and I could only imagine how the park would look like when they would all be functioning. The three fountains symbolize the stages of the Jamaican people towards emancipation, starting at the beginning of slavery in the late 17 century, towards freedom in 1838. The central fountain, Magic Main fountain, is supposed to be especially attractive at night, and is often used by newly-weds for pictures. Right at the centre of the park, you can find an open-air multi-purpose stage where performances are regularly held.
