I dare say the most beautiful inner city park I've ever been to. Be sure to so see the dueling oaks, anseman oak and the incredible McDonough oaks. Botanical gardens gorgeous too!

Rent kayaks at the Big Lake and kayak through the little canals . You'll see lots of turtles , birds, and potentially crocodiles that will make you paddle harder than you thought you could ????

Described as 10 times bigger than Central Park , I'm not sure any guest has seen it all. The south side features NOMA, the festival grounds, a free sculpture garden , mini golf and an amusement park .

Great place!!! Mini Golf , Regular Golf , Driving Range, Morning Call, Sculpture Garden , NOMA, Festival Grounds, Storyland , Botanical Gardens , carousel...so much to do! It's GREAT!!!

I was really impressed by two things: the size of the park (like Central Park in NYC) and the park of statues inside!

This park is absolutely amazing. The playground , the sculpture garden , Storyland , all of it. It's really just so incredible. I do wish you didn't have to pay a fee for the Botanical Garden and such.
