Above is a picture I found off of google of the great Washington Park in Colorado. My family traveled to Colorado in August of 2009 and we had stumbled upon this park. Washington Park is right outside the city of Denver and is such an amazing place. It is actually a pretty big park and what I like about it is that even though you are close to the city, it makes you feel like you're in the suburbs. Central Park in NYC also has that affect. When you enter the park there are fields with volleyball nets and there's a lake in which you can take those small paddle boats on. There is a second lake further back that is just for scenery. There are basketball courts, tennis courts, bikes to rent, and a path that goes around the entire park. The picture above shows the first lake where the boats are. Washington Park also has a huge flower garden right before the second lake. The garden has paths to walk through and is made up of many if not all colorful flowers. They also have concerts there I believe. It is a great park to go to with family, because it's so family friendly. Washington Park seems to be a great place to go sit and relax on a nice summer day.
