I love how this park is so beautiful and green. You also have the view of the city! This park is near a highschool so you’ll see so many other kids in the park too. Love how this park is just open to the public and so peaceful.

This is a gem!! I have never been to such a beautiful park.  The playground area is AMAZING! I was very impressed with the garden!! Absolutely,  unbelievable foliage with flowers and trees and GREEN grass. There's a huge area to have your dog off leash.  And my Moss got to meet a distant cousin! Bathrooms are very clean and accessible.   I'm so glad we stopped here.   There's so much to see,  from the gardens to amazing  views of the city: to a painted bridge and some history.  I believe EVERYONE can find some soul food at this park!
