Parque Kennedy — named for the American president after his 1962 visit — is the social centre of Miraflores, a triangle of flower beds, palm trees, and benches between the Iglesia La Virgen Milagrosa and the main commercial streets. The cats are the most famous residents: dozens of them, looked after by neighbours and an animal-welfare group, lounge on the lawns and benches and largely ignore tourists.
In the evenings the southern half of the park hosts open-air artisan markets, chess players, occasional live bands, and a steady drift of strollers between cafés. The Pasaje Cavenecio street art alley runs off one corner. Easy to reach from anywhere in Miraflores and a useful navigation point.
