Reviews
"Even the name is very nice. This park also has a grand church view and located in the center of roads decorated with flags of different countries. However, the cafe could be open in this park to make it more lively..."
"Great park for the kids. My toddler had a blast playing with the various water features. There is even space to have a picnic. Could use a better bathroom and an addition of a changing room would be nice."
"A hidden gem that is worth the visit. Its mostly for kids but adults can do it as well. It's like walking through a small jungle in the middle of the city. The landscape was tastefully done and keeps the kids engaged in scenery."
"A wonderful place to bring children. There's a Cafe, a bathroom with a changing station, a sprinkler and gated area with a small pool surrounded by trees, additional sprinklers and a large hammock. Parking isn't too much of a hassle as spots are often opening up on the parkway, however if you can avoid driving down and either walking or using Septa it may save having to drive around until something opens up.. I would suggest this place 1000 times over for parents looking for a nice comfortable place to cool off"
"A cool place on the way from Art museum to Love park. The main attraction is the fountain and AMOR statue shown in the pictures below. One can get inside the fountain and enjoy. Also there is a small fountain for kids to enjoy across the street. Paid parking is available nearby. Sister park cafe is also located in the kids park."
