Walking down Palafox street with my daughter is so much fun! Its very beautiful downtown especially when the sun sets. There are many sites to see to keep this a very enjoyable walk. Lots of history and new sites as well!

Lovely little area to relax and read a book. Some fascinating statues to learn some history of Pensacola. Just a little rift raft(homeless) hanging out. Only one individual who was unreasonable sat close to me for no reason and lit a cigar. Recommend during shopping to take a break. I did so as my family was shopping.

Its a nice place to just hang out with friends and family. There is a few poke stops and a gym if you play the Pokemon go game! Little food shack for a quick bite and ice cream. Jacos restaurant is a great place to eat as well, more traditional sit down fare nice ish place to eat.

Anyone interested in the colonial era should visit this wonderful park. This is a very significant historical place. Five different flags have flown here.

Cute park with some nice artwork and unique playground equipment. Not geared towards smaller children but they did enjoy the water table.

This is a serene respite in the midst of the downtown bustle lined with historic landmarks. Also, bring some seed or nuts coupled with patience and the squirrel may just eat from your hand!

A great place to walk the dogs or meet with friends. Close to resturaunts and reasonable free parking this park is maintained by the city and is always clean and pleasant to visit. A nice place to walk and people watch. Definitely an underused treasure in Pensacola.

This a place where tourists dine across the streets in fine restraunts while watching the homeless starve to death in the park...most ignored,stepped over,forgotten. Good job Pensacola.Do you know why homeless beg downtown?A main reason is Waterfront Mission CHARGES the homeless ten dollars every night they let them in...TRUTH.

Parked in front while waiting for the wife. Would be happier if there was more parking. I marked it down for trash in the fountain that looked like it had been there for a while. Maybe I should mark down the people who cant walk 10 feet to a trash can. The kids liked sitting in the park in the sun and reading. For the most part, it was easy to sit in car and watch them in park.

I love this park. Not as much for the park itself, but it seems to be the setting for many community events. It was part of Gallary Night, a once a month street fair/party they have. It is also adjacent to the Saturday market. If you go take time to look around carefully. There are little bits of Pensacola history everywhere you look.

Beautiful place with an incredible view. Not only a relaxing area to rest in between walking across the downtown area, but also a wonderful spot to read and learn about some history of the Pensacola area. The plaza has a plethora of benches with enough room for everyone to sit. There are squirrels and other life all around

This place would be so beautiful if they could do something about the beggars and pandhandlers. Theyre non threatening, but its just a bit annoying. There will be panhandlers in every city around the country though..just one of those tragic realities .nevertheless..worth a visit

Beautiful plaza named where Indian killer Andrew Jackson was sworn in as territorial governor. If any statue should be removed his bust should be busted. He hated the Indians and originated the Cherokee Indians Trail of Tears. He tried to kill the Florida Seminoles. He is a disgrace to hunanity.

Beautiful little park! For me the highlight was the “cha-cha” instructions embedded in the concrete at the corner near Zaragoza and S Palafox. Other than that nothing for kids but it’s a great place for a picnic or photo op.
