I love traveling, so the theme for the weeks fits perfectly into one of my hobbies. Am from Nigeria and we have 36 states which is divided into north, east, south and west. So far I have travelled and visited more than half of the 36states and my favorite place is Pleasure park found in the city of Port Harcourt, south of Nigeria.

Why do I like Pleasure park? The main features that makes it more attractive to me

Just like the name pleasure, pleasure park is a place of pleasure, relaxation, rest and a place of fun.

Pleasure park has many features that makes me love it. First the beautiful natural vegetation found there.

The vegetations are so beautiful that you just have to appreciate nature. So green! Also the landscape is well built to suit our modern day living.

The place is so organized and well maintained for standard sake. Another reason why pleasure park attracts me is because of the many games found there and the local food sold there.

Have you visited that place before? Or want to visit? When did you visit that place?

I have visited pleasure park a couple of times especially last year, infact this year I also plan to visit there again. My love for this place can not be totally explained in words. I love the fact that it's neat, well maintained and the gate fee is affordable to anyone, even though the rate of price increase affected the original gate fee of this park. Before the gate fee one can pay in other to have access into this park was 500 naira which is equivalent to 5 steem but it increased to 700 naira which is 7 steem Presently, I do not know the current price.

What are the Special features of the place?

Pleasure park as a recreation center, has several features like natural river and fountain, it has beautiful trees, it has a section for different games, it has several kitchen slots where traders sell their food and drink. In the section of food, you can find a slot for continental dishes and local dishes. You will find ice cream stands, you can find photographers stand. You can also see cartoon stands, there you find humans acting as spider man,

The major delicacy found here at pleasure park is roasted fish and roasted plantain with palm wine. It's usually a very beautiful scene. The local food taste very yummy because it's is well prepared and the roasted plantain and fish goes with pepper sauce.

Expenses of my visit

Products	prices
Gate fee	7 steem
Games	10 steem
Food	80 steem
Drinks	10steem
Total expenses	107 steem

For now when you want to pay a visit to pleasure park I advice you take twice the money of expenses I have listed above because of the current increase of price in everything. The increase of price in Nigeria and the printing of new currency notes affected so many sectors in the country and I know relaxation centers are not left out.
