The Parthenon is an exact replica of the one in Athens. A giant statue of Athena is inside. $7 to see the inside, but worth it.
It is currently under construction so maybe not as pretty as it could be but still a nice place to spend the afternoon. Plus they have an adult swing near the playground .
Great for a walk / run (Beware of stationary photographers ). Also, lots of ducks!
This is a good place for a stroll or to see one of the many events that take place here. I'm a big fan of Musician 's Corner that happens in the Spring and Summer.

Great for taking walks, running or biking . Beautiful views and peaceful .
Has a good size pond with plenty of ducks, a playground & ornate garden . Often times folks play sports there like ultimate frisbee & soccer .
Great park for walking around. Great for bird watching
The duck pond is an irresistible draw for young kids! Bring a picnic lunch and let the young ones run free on the acres of open lawn. Festivals and fairs abound so check their calendar for dates.
Probably one of my favorite urban parks . I discovered a little lake , an old military plane and a train on this trip to Centennial!

It's a really good place to come with the the family. And if you're into volleyball you can play that as well .
Great place to bring visitors on a nice, sunny day. Bring a book and blanket and stay a while. :)
There is a geocache spot near the Parthenon. It is on the corner of one of the cement blocks at the bottom near the walkway. Look for the broken corner and open it up.
One of the best area in Nashville by far. Perfect to bike , walk , run, picnic or just chill !!! Don't forget to visit the parthenon !!!

Very well maintained. Good place to stroll around or chill on the grass
Nice place to take a jog. The scenery is beautiful. There is a one mile loop around the park .
Make a stop by the recently renovated Parthenon. Say hi to Athena.BTW, if you've seen Percy Jackson, the exteriors of the Parthenon were shot in the little field in front of the entrance. And the
