Whetstone Park / Park of Roses, Columbus

This was a great place to walk around and lose track of time. I used my new (to me) camera here for the first time and took a lot of good pictures. It was very peaceful and wasn't busy for a park of that size. There were a lot of places to rest along the way, a public water fountain in case you forgot a drink and a lot of great photo opportunities. There was also a large green area great for picnics!

We visited early July and although I’ve never been in full bloom, I think we missed “full bloom” this year. The flowers were still very beautiful and it’s so peaceful to walk around. There are so many benches, lots of other people walking around (not crowded, just well attended) and lots of people with dogs. It’s obviously a great place for a photoshoot but also a calm morning walk. We will definitely be back soon!
