Emancipation Park
Emancipation Park Review
A 7-acre swath of greenery in the St. Andrew district of New Kingston, Emancipation Park was created in 2002. The south entrance is graced by Redemption Song, a pair of monumental statues of slaves that serve as a reminder of the island's colonial past. The park contains jogging trails and quiet spots to relax away from the buzzing city streets.
