One of the earliest parks in Olongapo, the Marikit Park stands the test of time in signifying one of Olongapenos’ favorite hang-outs, particularly students from the nearby college and children on it for its playground.
Marikit Park is situated at the center of Olongapo City, this park is ideal for the children and young at heart who simply wants to have a relaxation. A scenic playground and benches are provided in this place.
First-time visitors of this alleged “Youth and Children’s Park” will particularly remember it for its fantastic small block of artisan wall, which pays tribute to the hardworking people of Olongapo, and a repurposed fighter jet, left by the Americans sticking on top.
Marikit Park is near Gordon College, the museum, the convention center and the library. Students of the nearby city college frequent Marikit park to review lessons, take snacks, or chat with friends.
