What a great post! I unfortunately don’t have a picture of this particular place right now, but my most favorite place is the Boston Commons in downtown Boston. Surrounded by such large buildings, then you enter the gates and you are instantly taken away from the hustle of the city just a few yards away. They have plays, a large lake, vendors, rose garden and even a small pond for children to splash in. It’s a great place to get lost in!
My other favorite place, though it wasn’t really designed by a landscape architect, is Arcadia National Park in Maine. In the summer time, there are trails that line the cliffs that over look the ocean. Absolutely mesmerizing. The cliffs are open to climb on, so for hours I was trailing up and down the cliffs with this amazing view of the ocean!
