Ramna Park (Bengali: রমনা পার্ক, romanized: Rômnā Pārk, or Bengali: রমনা উদ্যান, romanized: Rômnā Udyān) is a significant urban green space renowned for its historical significance and recreational amenities, situated at the centre of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Described as the "lungs of Dhaka City," the 68.50-acre (277,200 m2) park was built during the British colonial era with a lake at its core, undergoing several transformations over the years and evolving into a popular public space. Additionally, Ramna Park hosts cultural events and festivals, notably, the yearly Bengali New Year celebrations.
