Cannon Park is located near MUSC and Roper Hospitals, in a less commercialized area of downtown…read moreCharleston. My most recent visit was for two days of volunteer work with my running club, which hosts a race that begins and ends in the park. Cannon Park's most prominent feature is the raised platform with four columns, which are the last remnants of the old Charleston Museum that burned down in 1981. Lately, people have used sidewalk chalk to write inspirational quotes and positive messages on the columns. For dog parents, Cannon Park is the place to go. Your pups will meet plenty of other pups to social with, as this seems like Charleston's token dog park. I'm not sure if dogs are supposed to be off leash in this park or not, but they often are. The park has doggy bags and waste receptacles, but watch your step as not everyone cleans up. I almost slipped stepping into a few holes as well, and I wish the city would give the park some TLC and level those so no one gets hurt. The park has a small playground, which is shaded but the equipment looks like it's seen better days. Although the Charleston City Parks website claims the park has wifi, it is spotty at best, so I wouldn't count on it. If you're hungry or thirsty while in the park, there's a Walgreens and a gas station very close by. This simple park doesn't have a huge tourist draw, which could be a plus. Since it's so close to the hospitals, it's the perfect place to go for a walk for some fresh air and a little escape from the medical community.

Thanks to the columns that remain from the old museum, they are the perfect meeting spot to hang out with friends or have a first date. It's proximity to the gas station gives you the opportunity to get an ice cold beverage at any time. But make sure not to litter this green lung!

Dear Wragg Mall, Thank you for your peacefulness amidst what…read morecan be a rather hectic section of downtown Charleston. Time seems to slow down as I walk along your path. I have taken refuge from the heat in the shade of your towering trees many a summer day. I have enjoyed picnics on your lawn, and have watched children run and play enticed by your beautiful fountain. There are many benches to sit, read a book, people watch, or just take in life. I even had a photo shoot one evening there. You are a very special spot, -Minta

This area is very clean and well taken care of and has a beautiful architecture that really brings the area together.

There are plenty of benches and sitting areas here to take advantage of and sit and really enjoy the garden. I have really enjoyed being able to come here and take in the beauty of the garden on a regular basis.

The garden lives up to its name and there are plenty of butterflies available to be observed as they fly out and about from all parts of the garden. I like that there are educational displays with pictures of the different types of butterflies that are present in the garden. The flowers and plants are nice to smell and look at too. There are plenty of places to sit and even a picnic table to have a picnic in the garden. The trees in the garden create plenty of shade to make it a cool place to be. I like that this area is there and it is nice to visit on a busy day to catch some fresh air and quiet and hang out with the butterflies.
