One of my favorite spots to be outside is Falls Park in Greenville, SC. Falls Park is a beautiful green area in the middle of downtown. The park features beautiful waterfalls, gorgeous stone paths, and amazing plant life. It also has an incredible suspension bridge that allows people to look over the edge for an excellent view of the park in all its glory. The park is surrounded by architecturally interesting buildings that house a variety of shops and restaurants.

 

My favorite aspect of the park is the rivers and waterfalls. I have always been a really big fan of the water, and I grew up playing in the river in the park, hopping over the rocks and watching the little fish swim around. I love standing under the waterfall and watching the water rush over my feet on the rocks. You definitely have to be careful on the rocks, though, because they can get very slippery.

 

Another great thing about the park is all of the activities there. The park has hosted public events such as festivals, stage performances, and live music, as well as private events such as weddings, business events, and family picnics. You can find a schedule of public events here. Falls Park is a beautiful outdoor area with many different features, from the plant life to the river that runs through the park. If your summer travels bring you to Greenville, South Carolina, I definitely recommend going to Falls Park or taking your family there. It’s a great place to get outside and have fun!
