Eden Park
A large hilltop city park east of downtown with sweeping views of the winding Ohio River, plus an art museum, a conservatory, and a reflecting pond.
Eden Park is Cincinnati's most popular city park. Its high ground offers lookouts over a bend of the Ohio River and the hills of Kentucky across the water. The park features Mirror Lake, which reflects a classical gazebo; a water tower dating to 1894; a Roman gift statue of the she-wolf nursing Romulus and Remus; the Cincinnati Art Museum; the Krohn Conservatory; and the Playhouse in the Park theater. Entry is free. It's ideal for strolling and picnicking, and the light is best in the evening. You can walk in from Mount Adams.
