Friendship Park and Fountain
 

Description

One of the world's tallest fountains, this spectacular piece of architecture is an impressive 200 feet in diameter and shoots water more than 120 feet into the air. At night, the colorful lighting turns the splashing waters into an animated, playful work of art. A lovely green space surrounds the fountain and comes complete with picnic tables and seating for relaxing and admiring the views of the St Johns River and city skyline. You will find the fountain next to the Museum of Science and History on Museum Circle.

Great to take Kids
By ,
The fountain is coordinated with lights and music which is a great show at night. It has a great view of downtown and the mainstreet bridge. You can easily walk to the mainstreet bridge from there. While there is a green space, it isn't very large. It's more fountain than park. It's right next to a restaurant that charges for parking which is a pain. The other closest place is at MOSH. MOSH has a small parking lot, but it is free.

Fantastic Wedding
By ,
My wife and I had our wedding there also a couple weeks ago, couldnt think of a better place. We had ours at dusk, that way you can enjoy the fountain lights as they changed colors and also see the lights of downtown behind us. Best part, its free, if you set up anything such as a PA system you will need to get ahold of somebody to get power cords ran, but if not, just show up. Perfect spot.
