It was created as an entertainment complex with mainly water activities: beaches, boating, water attractions. It is located on Venetsiiskyi (Ukrainian: Венеційський) and Dolobetskyi (Ukrainian: Долобецький) islands; the Venetian Bridge connects these islands. Venetsiiskyi Island is connected with the rest of Kyiv by two bridges: the Metro Bridge to the right-bank city and the Rusanivka bridge to the left-bank city. The Hidropark station of Kyiv Metro is located on Venetsiiskyi Island.
