The park is very well arranged, and here one can see specially marked rare trees. In the park and at the edges of this favorite Zemun's promenade there are some buildings and monuments of great architectonic importance.

The Monument hatckar, by Armenian author Ruben Nalbandjan, was placed in front of the church in 1993.

Behind the chapels there is the commemorative column, presented in 1933, in the honor of 100th anniversary from the day when well-known French poet Alfons Lamartin stayed in Zemun.
