    1.5 hours from home... stopped here for some fresh air and to burn time. Took a quick walk/roll aground the lake. There were many ducks, birds and chickens. Didn't have time to check out the museum on this visit. Was interested by the history of the park, honoring women of Miami Dade.

    I love that there is a park in Miami that was created to honor the many ways women have impacted Miami-Dade County. This is one of the first parks in the United States to be dedicated to women. This one million dollar park near FIU opened in December of 1992 at 10251 W. Flagler St. in West Miami-Dade. There were a lot of mamas in the park on the day I visited. People mamas taking their kids out to exercise and play and animal mamas taking care of their babies. A soon as I pulled in to park, I spotted mama hen feeding her chicks and there were several duck mothers with their ducklings on the lake. The Women's Park is 15 acres set around a lake. The park is home to the Roxcy O'Neal Bolton Exhibit, named for a local feminist and civil rights activist who founded the park. Bolton is the founding president of the Miami-Dade chapter of the National Organization for Women. The exhibit is a gallery with art items from O'Neal's 50 years as a women's rights activist. Nearby, the park has two gate art installations, named the Gates and Fences Project, created by Miami artist Lydia Rubio. The art on the gates represents female empowerment. The Women's Park playground is named in honor of Leona Ferguson Cooper, an advocate for women, children and another one of the founders of the Women's Park. The Women's Park also has a walking path and a picnic shelter/pavilion that can be reserved. Classes, workshops, and camps are held at the park. One star off for locking the restrooms. As a woman using the Women's Park, it is not very empowering when you need to use the restroom and are greeted with a locked door. Otherwise I had a very enjoyable time walking around this park.

    A Celebration in this Day.

    This is a nice little park by the FIU engineering center.Now they added BBQ stations,so im excited about that, specially that its exacly 0.8 miles from mi casa :). The park is not very large but its not small. I get to do my everyday laps and im satisfied with that.

    Surprised and happy to see the turtles!!

    I really enjoyed this park. Very clean and a nice place to walk. I had fun feeding the ducks, turtles and fish! There is a nice meeting space and air conditioned lobby inside.

    Ahoy Matey! Did you know there is a pirate themed playground in Altos Del Mar Park in Miami Beach?…read moreGather up the crew and anchors away for the most almost free fun a fledgling pirate can have. You still have to pay for parking. I recommend the parking lot next door. The Pirate Park Playground was built by Superior Playgrounds who was tasked with designing a one-of-a-kind pirate theme play space to spark creative play and provide a safe place for budding buccaneers to play. The playground is made of recycled material like milk jugs and was created to be corrosion resistant so that it would always look good in this salt water coastal ecosystem. Located only 100 feet from the beach, the playground is fenced in for safety. There is a large pirate ship for older children to climb on and slide down and a smaller area for younger privateers. The crows nest with rigging looked especially fun to climb. Other playground play structures include clownfish and blue tang fish spring riders, a custom octopus playhouse, and palm tree shade. There are four triangle sail shades and poured-in-place safety surfacing to protect little knees and bottoms. Bathrooms are nearby. During my visit the playground was filled with kids and their families enjoying the nautical theme. This unique play space fosters imagination and physical movement for the youngest North Beach residents and visitors.

    Amazing park next to the beach. It's very clean and enclosed so the kids can not run away…read more Restrooms right next to it. We walked right over to the beach which was amazing. I will return !

Fuchs who founded the Holsum Baking Company in Homestead, Florida, in 1913. To be closer to distribution centers, Mr. Fuchs move his bakery to South Miami in 1934 where it became one of the biggest employers in the city. Fuchs was a civic leader in South Miami where he served as a charter member of the South Miami Chamber of Commerce and as its president from 1937 to 1944 and from 1949 until 1954 when he passed away as a result of an air boat accident. In April 1993, on the 80th anniversary of the Holsum Baking Company, the City of South Miami dedicated a plaque in his memory in the park. The park is the home for the offices for Chamber SOUTH which has served as the chamber of commerce for Greater South Miami-Dade for more than 80 years. Also n the park you will find a picnic area, picnic shelter, running/walking trail, benches, water fountain, playground, sand volleyball court, and pond. My favorite part of the park was the feature feature which attracted a large variety of birds. This park is perfect for birdwatching, exercise, picnics, and play. I really enjoyed discovering this little oasis of nature right near busy US 1.
