  • Very cool to see the remnants of the 1982 World's Fair. The Sunsphere is open to visit and the park is very well-maintained.

  • Nice park with a water feature across the street. Great "free" family outing, the kids will definitely enjoy. The water feature is really nice, and it has great seating area. 🚨I think the playground is for ages 5-12. If you have toddlers that visit, just be mindful that the items of park are geared for older children. I love how the park offer sunscreen dispensers, that's be very thoughtful! Free parking is a 3-4 minute walk away, and the max time is 4 hours, which is plenty to enjoy. Overall it's a great place to come to bring kids for a little fun on a hot day.
  • This is a beautiful park, there's a water feature. And, the Sunsphere observation deck gives you a 360 view of the city. This is really fun little excursion if you happen to be downtown Knoxville. You will need a reservation to go up to the observation deck. It costs $5 and you purchase tickets online. They have a few souvenirs once you get up there and the tickets are in 30 minutes blocks... although, you do not have to leave at the end of your 30 minutes... just know that another group is coming up and it will be crowded
