Welcome to paradise! Manito park in mid-August made for an amazing afternoon. We walked under a…read morebeautiful stone bridge and up a little hill and emerged at Rose Hill Garden which was filled with thousands of roses of many varieties. We then made our way to the Lilac Garden where we just missed the peak season but it was still an amazing sight and smell. Next up was Nishinomiya Tsutakawa Japanese Garden. I love Japanese Gardens and didn't even know one existed in the corner of the park! We spent 40 minutes in here taking in the views and having casual conversations with visitors. Unfortunately, we didn't see the Gaiser Conservatory but did have time to visit the Duncan Garden which was another area filled with tens of thousands of different flowers. There were also statues, fountains, and other surprises. The symmetry of the arranged flower beds and decorations delighted the engineer in me. We saw a lot of other life in the park- bees, butterflies, worms, beetles, squirrels and more. I highly recommend visiting this park if you're in Spokane! It's a great place to forgot your troubles and see the beauty in life!

I didn't get a chance to see the rest of the park due to the fact that I was her Maid of Honor and it was drizzling outside. I loved the fact that the gazebo was so large.

Mission Park is a 13 acre park very conveniently located walking distance from Gonzaga University…read moreand the heart of the Logan neighborhood. If you find yourself on campus and looking for a more kid friendly area (aka slides and splash pads) I would recommend a walk on down to the park! It has a large bank of tennis courts (with evening play available due to the lights!). It also has a pool! Many times when I've been here there is some kind of swimming competition occurring in the pool. Last time I stopped by they had some new fitness play equipment for adults. I have an interest in unique playground equipment so I thought this was pretty cool considering the retirement facility located right on the edge of the park. You can grab picnic supplies at the nearby Safeway or takeout from the nearby Thai restaurant and enjoy the beautiful summer weather in Spokane. I frequently see people picnicking here. One really important part of Mission Park that I must mention is the memorial to Otto Zehm. He was a mentally-ill man killed by the Spokane police in 2006. The simple memorial was placed in 2012 as part of a settlement with the city of Spokane. As a community it is important to remember the legacy of Otto Zehm and I think a visit to this memorial is an important visit for any local or tourist.

We went back a couple days later to find the fire was out. I took my friend's 2-mile walk with his dog and a lot of times he takes the dog home and goes back and walks another 4 miles. I found the area to be gorgeous with the Spokane river displaying a beautiful reflection early morning views. I had a fantastic time!! Can't wait to come back and trail walk again!
