It’s cool but probably one of those things you see once and you’ve seen all of it. The art work was cool but nothing too awe inspiring. The Athena statue was probably the coolest part! Just wish the information panels were printed with a bit larger text because it was hard to read with so many people standing in front of them.

The Parthenon and surrounding gardens are beautiful landmarks to enjoy in Nashville! Fragrant flowers abound and paths meander peacefully around a lake where you can find turtles slipping in and out of the water. Viewing the statue of Athena inside the monument will take your breath away, and the educational tour regarding the construction of it will fascinate you!

1/24/22 $10 admission to go through the museum. Very Informative, long, fascinating, and interesting. I thought it was worth the price per person. The building was beautiful to see up close. Many photographers were there. I definitely would like to revisit in the summer for pictures and for a nice picnic.

I really enjoy this park as I always come here when visiting Nashville! It’s pretty safe to walk around and enjoy the scenery! Not too far from Vanderbilt which you can see their football stadium from afar! I highly recommend visiting to enjoy a good outing even if it snows like I did when I visited!

Can you bike in the park?

Sandra Rideout | Jan 13, 2019
Gwen Banks | Jan 14, 2019

You can bike in the park, there is a sidewalk / circuit all the way around. However I would not call this a cyclist's first-choice. There are usually more Walkers and kids, and the real cycling I'd say is probably done on the Greenways around town.

The lake has fish in it. I will say that the fish we saw weren't that big, and they looked like cichlids. I didn't see anything like Koi in the lake. It is still very pretty and relaxing. There is also an island with bee hive boxes on it.

To my recollection your car would be just fine there. They wouldn't know if your just wondering about the park or not. Now if you left it there for a day or overnight then I would think it would be towed then
