Visited here during new years. Civic Center building was beautifully decorated with lights and best time to visit here was at night where you can enjoy the lights and take pictures.

Like most things in Denver, this park is exceptionally clean. Very neat architecture and lots of open space. The only reason this gets 4 stars is due to the amount of homeless that like to congregate here, though they didnt bother me.

A five star review for the beautiful, historical park, with incredible statues commemorating the Native American and Bronc Busting influence, and amazing architectural buildings. The Capital and Civic Center are wonders to behold. Sadly, the homeless camps surround the area, and the sanitary and trash problems make it sad and smelly.

We went to the Christkindl Market in November. It was fun, considering Covid and all. But make sure you get there right when it opens since the line to get in moves slower than a herd of snails traveling through peanut butter.

Its a beautiful place during the summer but a filthy sty during the winter. Homeless camps and people have been known to appear here during the winter.Not the cleanest or safest place for kids. Teens who want to go exploring will be likely to catch something nasty if they frequent this place.

This is a great resource for the people while a ton of people can and do use this spot to exercise their freedom to assemble more people should use this more often... it’s a great place to go feed squirrels or the homeless also a great place for a quick lunch break... also some awesome photo backdrops no matter which direction you facing something exciting is going to be happening... never a dull moment in this park it will keep you on your toes...

Christmas lights at Civic Center Park are amazing loved every minute!

Too many homeless people and they were doing crazy things to actually enjoy ourselves without fearing for my kids safety. I wish it wasnt that way because the park is beautiful and the market was amazing as was the view of the capitol building lights.

Lovely park. Great architecture. There seems to be a permanent encampment of tents on the grounds. Beautiful at night but does not feel safe.

I went to the German Christmas market and had a great time it was easy to get to and parking wasnt hard to find .I ended up just getting street parking to be closer

Great park during the day. Even bad some mounted police officers patrolling. By about 2/3pm there were a ton of homeless people claiming a spot for the night. It was so sad to see.

How to get into the Holiday, I.E Christmas, spirit? Watch city workers install the Big Wreath on City & County Bldg. p s if you like big trucks, this is for you.Thanks, workerd

So very sad to see boarded windows on all sides of the park. To feel afraid in an area I used to picnic in the grass, volunteer at the Peoples fair, frequent the Art Museum, enjoy the hub of the city, Not anymore, its horrible

Other than the litter pollution from recent gatherings, Civic Center Park was peaceful, comfortable, well maintained and a wonderful experience. Gardens were growing of many colors, historic monuments displayed historic value, and paths lead to theatres, benches, and museum. Downtown is great although mountain parks are my next choice when visiting.

I didnt want to leave. Inspiring honest powerful. Genius museum quality art. Go and be transformed. Go across street bring food and love.

Great historical building. Very beautiful from inside and outside. Easily accessible and to locate. Staff is very helpful too. Must visit place in downtown Denver. You get to see the Senate and House. They have guided tours every hour. Do have to register in advanced though.

I had an awesome time in Denver for the greater greener conference. The park looks nice for the most part. Not sure if all those works were done because of the conference. I also observed a lot of homeless around the park which is typical for big city. The civic center was very nice, I love the art that are on display upstairs. The garden outside was nicely done but there is potential for better design and maintenance.Overall Denver is a great place to visit I must say a clean city as well. I love you Denver the mile high city.

It was pretty awesome really good experience being there

A wonderful park between the Denver Capital and the City & County Building. always something going on here most weekends and week days. From political rallies, food events with bands or just hanging out you can find something to do here. Like most of downtown you will find homeless people. But dont let that keep you away. Many people use the landmarks for pictures. In the summertime during the week day there is Civic Center Eats. where they bring in food trucks for lunch time with live music playing. This happens 3 days a week. They also have completely free workout classes in the park 3 times a week. Yoga is later in the afternoon on Monday and two other classes are during lunchtime Tuesday and Thursday. In winter time the workout classes move to the McNichols Civic Center Building.

The grass is so soft. Lay in it bare footed. You wont regret it

Beautiful. The lights make it look even better despite the homeless activity

Nice open area. Grass and architecture. Lots of tents during COVID 19..

I was at end police coruption rally but they arent the only ones who are corrupt the D.A.s office is full of corruption we need to stop them NOW AND BY ANY MEANS!!!

It was quite calm 2day no 1 was raising hell as they do sumtimes. MayB because of heavy police presents

Great place for views and photos. Lots of homeless hanging around. Was asked by several people if I wanted to buy drugs. Not a good hangout!

Love this place and love that the chriskndl market worked perfectly in that location.

The evening I was there October 11th in the evening the park appeared to be freshly sodded and what was a roadway between the park and Civic Center has become a pedestrian and bike thoroughfare finished off with a very nice mural

Pretty. But didnt care for the people smoking crack. Serious

Met up with some great leaders in the community looking to stop the sweeps of people experiencing homelessness. I want to do my part as a storyteller.

This place is a vortex... I havent left its mile radius in over a year. All my friends are named things like Gator, Shiz, and Onion. I once asked the deepest of all the universes questions but now I mostly just ask for change. Home sweet home, where dreams go to die.

Went by the other week and was pleasantly surprised by how well it’s maintenanced. All the landscaping and flowers are lovely

Christkindl was perfect, lots of food and I loved the warm wine

Relaxing. Beautifully decorated. No parking in front but close.

To many homeless people looking for drugs and just laying everywhere the park is nice just not the type of environment you can relax at.

Scenic walkways through beautifully- manicured gardens and Renaissance-era architecture. Conveniently located between the Colorado State Capital building and the Denver Courthouse/Judicial building, as well as being directly adjacent to the Denver Public Library, a 5 minute walk to the Denver Art Museum & Hotel (#1 hotel in Denver) and to the 16th Street Mall & Civic Center Station (with connecting RTD routes: #8 [Wagon Rd. PnR], #19 [106th & Melody], #48 [ 68th & Dahlia via 48th & Brighton Stn.], #83L [Nine Mile], #FF4 [Boulder Junction] & Mall Ride [Denver Union Station-15 minute bus ride w/ bus stops at each block down the 16th Street Mall [Union Station connections to: Commuter Rail/Light Rail/Local & Regional RTD Bus routes].

This is a beautiful downtown Denver park. You must put it on your list to go see when you vist Denver. But you must know that there is a high concentration of homeless people and drug users that are around this area. Please watch out for yourself and other while here. We have seen used needles in the grass. So watch where you walk. With that being said it is a very beautiful place and is heavily patrolled and you are safe going there. A great place to visit and eat a picnic.

We were at the 2020 Marade in Denver and marched from City Park to Civic Center Park for the Martin Lutheran King Parade. The park is large and nice, it has an open center stage, and lots of grassy areas. A lot of community events happen here so it’s a popular spot in the city.

Very nice place for walk. And relax

Snow made this park so simple yet fun!

What a beautiful city park. Ive been to 45 states and cannot think of its equal. While there are often many homeless people about, Ive yet to see a single citizen bothered or troubled in any way. If you live in Denver and youve never walked through and experienced this architectual marveI I would strongly encourage you to visit splendid civic park.

Very colorful mix of visitors from all walks of life

The food trucks in the summer are nice and the flowers are beautiful but with all the homeless and graffiti that have taken over, its not worth it.

Should be called “Homeless Park”. Within 20 minutes I saw a two homeless men fight, was offered crack, and my wife catcalled. Really unfortunate because the park itself is pretty.

Its a nice park.they have good food.landscaping was well maitnenced.

Great place, but lots of homeless people near by. Be careful since some will try to chase you.

Right now, because of covid19 increased unemployment, there are a lot of homeless people sleeping in this area and may not be a suggested destination. But during any other time, this is a nice place to go take pictures.

Beautiful display but a shame they didnt have the US or Colorado flags lit properly.

Its Civic Center Park...lol... Just Be Aware & Be Safe!

Definitely could have been better…this is such a prime location with several significant landmarks all around (Colorado State Capitol and Denver Art Museum, just to name a couple). Unfortunately the park feels lacking maintenance and suffers from the homelessness problem in the area.

Its beautiful!! Used to skate there! Took my first 18 step ollie!!

This park USED to b one of the best in the city. But, drug use and homelessness has taken it over. Sad how the city has allowed it.

Pretty damn cook for just chillin actually

It was quick because of the homeless precedent.

Beautiful holiday display, very pretty in person.

Its a pity how a beautiful place became a shelter for homeless (addict people). The local government must do something about this situation, beyond the bad aspect and the fear of being robbed when you walk through this park, is disrespectful having these people as the owners of this public places.

Lovely place to do my civic duty, voting early!

Fun place to kick it while you are on breaks for jury duty. In the early afternoon they have food trucks and exercise classes. Today might have been special but they also had some live music which was nice. This is a fun spot to explore and check out all the different architectur. If youre in the area come in the early afternoon so you have stuff to explore and eat

The gardens have beautiful fall foliage, plus gorgeous flowers

Nice there if it stays clean the park is nice

Walked around at night time. Was super cool. Be aware of walking by yourself and where you are!

COVID put a damper on Christ Kindle.

Not much to say no tents were up usually homeless people sleep there Im Homeless but at the Denver Coliseum

This venue is right in the center of downtown Denver. When I first saw the architecture it immediately caught my eye and I knew I had to get out and see more of it and find out exactly what it was. So I parked right in front and ventured out. It looks like greek architecture, its pretty grand and very regalesque all in the back drop of a park on a city wide block. I asked the police for the name and they had no idea, which I thought was rather funny. Nonetheless, its a great place to take pictures and notice the grandeur of this edifice in the middle of the city a stones throw from city hall and the Supreme Court. Ive included pictures of city hall which is evidenced by the gold dome as well as the beautiful tress that surround the park and adorn the entrance to this building.

Been here for a couple of festivals. Good times and the surrounding area is clean and upkept

So much fun at the Pride Parade! Beautiful area!

I loved checking out the buildings and statues, but there was an unusually high amount of homeless people here. Still worth a visit if at all interested.

Its big city with big city issues. Unfortunately its not a park you wanna have a picnic with your gf, wife, or whomever.

The night view here are amazing! Come here after Christmas Day, the color light still on,the park is big, other side is Capitol building, art museum is at south, the city view Shelton is north, after 6pm, you just can park your car nearby street without fee. But the bad things is this part is also the night home of homeless.

Very nice park, but it was filled with alot of homeless people!

Beautiful place but too many homeless

The park is beautiful, green grass, clean sidewalks, & has quite a few large trees to chill under in the shade! I recommend this park.

Great place to relax and soak up the beautiful flowers!

Enjoyed the way it was lit up that night

Wow could be so pretty. But it is very disturbing no one is doing anything about the homeless population. It seemed worse than Vegas.

Excellent open area park in the heart of downtown. All the major buildings have numerous historical plaques and have stunning architecture. The promenade is a wonderful place to have a picnic or just take in the scenery. Photo ops abound. A must stop for visitors to the city.

Went for the Christkindl and lots of Homeless people everywhere in the park, even seen 2 people shutting up something in a syringe !!

150 people allowed into the Christkindl Market! You stand in line and have to watch the homeless smoke, get high etc. Very very disappointing! They should have pushed them out for this event!

Best place to make eclectic people...lol

Its really good place but there a lot of homeless, so for me who I go alone and Im girl. I dont feel so much safty

Wasnt attacked like the capital building was. Alot of homeless near by and homeless camps down the street

A very nice park to take a walk. It is gorgeous in early April.

Pretty nice and very deserted tho

Beautiful park. Great for relaxing in the grass or under a tree

Junkies and nasty homeless everywhere!!! Stay away

The parade of lights was amazing! Sad to see all the homeless population is still increasing. So hard when people are asking for money or trying to cause harm to enjoy a walk to the parade. Our community needs resources not parades.

Beautiful structures around the pace. Great views of capital building.

Love this park!! Something is always happening. A convert, food trucks, art exhibits, trickers having sessions on the grass.. super accessible and close to 16th street mall for food, to spend even more time at the park

Here for the 420 rally in 2017. Really a beautiful park! The city seemed to set the rally up for failure by not putting trash receptacles throughout the park. There was only a handful back by the memorial where all the port a potties were. What do you expect if people do not have a place to put their trash? I had camera bags but no trash bags. I literally had to put food container waste in my backpack til I left the park and found a trash receptacle. It just seemed unorganized at best. Had a great time with all the people and got some great shots!

This place is stunning!!! All the details at the building is just amazing! Beautifully crafted...Murals are striking..beautiful stained glass windows...its one of Awe place!

Very filthy and dirty. Filled up with nothing but homeless what a shame.

The park is beautiful has great places to take pictures of

Luckily I actually got to visit on a day that it wasnt snowing and it was very pleasant outside. I have lived off and on In Denver since 2013 and ha e frequented the area in the past, but never took the time to take a walk through the park as the saying goes. Very peaceful, very clean and educational!! I will definitely visit it again!

Beautiful location we went for a concert and the views of the buildings just helped me enjoy it that much more. Ps lots of homeless people near by. Also this is in downtown area, lots of art graffiti, hippies and young adults having a good time.

Gorgeous State Capitol building! Huge open lawn between the Capitol and the City-County Building.There are a lot of homeless that hang out at the park. No homeless camps like some cities. Sixteenth ave nearby.

Beautiful place but too many homeless

Beautiful outdoor area. On occasion dozens of food trucks serve lunch

Civic Center Park during Pride Fest is, well, festive. There were a ton of people and activities and food, and it was a good time. Not good if youre into muted color schemes. :-)

Absolutely awesome! Great layout of park! Surrounded by beautiful buildings!!

Having lunch with friends at civic center eats. The pizza was delicious.

The park is a great location for gatherings and events. Wide open spaces combined with the clean mile high air make for a great experience!
