The snaking Schuylkill River bisects this 9200-acre green space, the largest city park in the US. On the east bank, admire the Victorian-era rowing clubs at Boathouse Row; there's a fine view from in front of the art museum. On either side of the river are playing fields and lawns, public art, historic houses and a very large zoo . In cherry-blossom season especially, don't miss the 16th-century-style Shofuso Japanese House and Garden .
