    This park is very nice and is a hub to many attractions. It has very weird hours, opens late and closes early. It’s very, very obvious they are trying to keep the homeless from sleeping in the park...  more »

    Centennial is a great park for sunset strolls, picnics, and people walking. If you’re visiting our great city, you must come here! There’s statues and monuments throughout the park from the Olympics. The park is well kept and I’ve never had a bad interaction here (I live across the street and walk almost daily!). There’s lots of food nearby as well. Great park!

    Great place to get out of all the people in Atlanta. Many playgrounds with some pretty cool things. Even a pirate ship that you can rock. The fountain are great to watch. There are many public bathrooms in the park. Make sure to get out 15 minutes before they close because they usually close the gates early. Each playground is for a different age group so make sure to take that into consideration. A great place to take a walk. The trees even provide shade from southern heat. In conclusion, it's a great place to go to
