History

The park area used to be known as the Park of the Non-aligned,^[1] after the Third World countries movement co-founded by then Yugoslav president Josip Broz Tito. That park had an area of 3 hectares (7.4 acres), but due to the bad maintennace for decades it fell into poor shape, completely losing its original attributes. As a joint initiative of President of Serbia Boris Tadić and Prime minister of Republika Srpska Milorad Dodik,^[2] with assistance of the Belgrade city government and communal services, and plant breeders from Banja Luka, 1.7 hectares (4.2 acres) of the previously ruined park have been restored. The new park was opened on April 30, 2008.
