Just like the Monopoly board which really could use a new layer of painting, the park itself could really use some refreshment.The decoration is pretty old and not in line with the city’s nice and modern look.Also could use some trees and more benches to sit on.

Nice open park with lots of open area. It houses the worlds record Monopoly board printed and cement as per Guinness Book of World Records. There are also some cool statues that you could sit on or pose next to.The negative side to this area is there are a lot of homeless people sleeping in the Guadalupe River embankment area. Kids should definitely stay away from that area as there are a lot of needles and other bad things happening around there.

This is located in downtown San Jose. The green lawn is used for various summer festivals which happens in San Jose. There is a Monopoly in the park. I have attended San Jose Renaissance Fair which was held in this park. It was an interesting to attend, you can see folks with costumes.

Perfect place for a morning or evening stroll. Large open field, and dont forget to visit the animal sculptures and the giant monopoly board. Walk towards to edge of the park where the small footpath crosses the stream. Watch out for airplanes flying overhead, great for photos. Afternoon can get quite hot in the uncovered areas.

Went here for the 4th of July fireworks, it is not to be missed especially if you have to make last minute plans. Quaint place in San Jose downtown, well connected by VTA and close to Childrens Discovery Museum, Civic center and various local pubs and restaurants.

Great downtown park for events. Easy access from light rail. Wouldnt visit without an organized event due to drug use and sketchy characters near Guadalupe.

They have monthly activities and programs for kids, adults also enjoy very much and learn together. During vacations is very crowded but still fun to visit.

Went to the San Jose Ren Faire at this park. Great ren faire in a nice area, although there arent many trees, so it was very hot. Always a nice park though.

Really disappointing to see a child in a wheelchair whose only option is to watch the other children explore. If only the activities were accessible to children with disabilities. Only a few things are accessible.

Part of the Childrens Museum.My granddaughter, aged 4, loved it.Children can explore to their hearts content!Theres a big tree with walkways and a tree house.How to get out?Take the sliding board!!Next, go play in the pea gravel and sand. Build a sand castle!Explore the paths in the flower garden and look at the beautiful vegetables growing.

Seemed desolate and neglected. Not much to do there except what youd bring yourself. Dry, brown grass crying out for a little TLC.

This park is huge and WAY under utilized. I am not sure why more fitness related groups are not using this space to practice and have fun. Great place for a jog, picnic, and to walk!
