This park runs along the river downtown for over a mile. A great place to walk or ride bikes, see the river and several bridges, and go downtown from there. The Japanese memorial is at the north end of the park - a meditative walk with rocks inscribed with quotes. On weekends, Saturday Market is in the park at the Burnside bridge.
