What travelers say:
The park itself is beautiful. I really like the one in the fountain center. The park is near the landmark of the national capital. It's a very beautiful sight. I participated in a community event there and something happened in the park during the whole year. If you want to get out of urban life and be surrounded by nature, parks are such a good place.

Bushnell Park Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Bushnell Park, located in Hartford, the capital of Connecticut, is the first park in the United States. Conceived by Reverend Horace Bushnell in the mid-1850s, the need for open public spaces was just beginning to be recognized. Pastor Bushnell asked his good friend Frederick Law Olmsted to design the layout of the park. But Olmsted was busy designing Central Park in New York City and Forest Park in Springfield (Massachusetts), so he recommended Jacob Weidenmann, a Swiss-born landscape architect and botanist who designed the beautiful trails and groves, and the park river that flows through the park.
