The amount of detail in this installation is very impressive. The more you pay attention the more connected the narrative becomes. It's a fun little view while you take a walk. They provide boat tours of the installation as well. It would be nice if there were some additional shaded structures or facilities for a cookout or venue space.

The Oklahoma Land Run Monument contains one of the world’s largest collection of bronze statues depicting optimistic homesteaders frozen in time on their way to claim a better life on the April 22, 1889 land run. The 45 pieces were sculpted over a 20 year period and are the work of Norman artist, Paul Moore. The intricate works of art are beautifully crafted & detailed. The pieces capture the essence of the historic event. It’s a nice tribute to those people that had the courage to take a chance to wildly race to stake their claim for a new life. Well done 👍🏻 We've seen a lot of historical sculpture and monuments on our travels through the years, but here on our first visit to Oklahoma City, while on the Canal boat tour, we saw the Oklahoma Land Run monument and were blown away by the sheer magnitude of the work...the size and number of figures to tell the story and convey the sense of urgency and speed of the event! Magnificent!! If you don’t know your Oklahoma history, look up the 1889 Land Run in which the Boomers crossed the river from Texas into Oklahoma on horses and covered wagons and staked their claims on the first homesteads. Cast in bronze in remarkable detail, you’ll see a total of 49 figures including horses, riders, wagons, even a dog and a hare. You can view this monument from the Bricktown Water Taxi, however, it is just a short walk on the sidewalk from the famous waterfall fountain (near the Marriott Residence Inn / Chickasaw Ball Park). The sidewalk wraps around so you can see both sides of the monument close up. Look for the details: old and young, men and women, children and one infant, a writer who has lost his hat, a fallen rider and horse, covered wagons, provision wagons, light carts, flagmen and the artist’s uncanny ability to capture in solid bronze what appears to be entirely in motion. You are there, frozen in a moment in time. Don’t miss this on your visit Oklahoma City

This monument is stunning. First of all these things look to me to be larger than "actual size" (of a typical horse, dog, rabbit, person etc.) So it is easy to see even from a decent distance. Check out the unique details of each piece! My favorite detail is the Rabbit running from the landrunners at the very front, possibly signifying the disruptive onset of the rushing settlers, or how quickly it all occured. This is not a replication of the same horse or person dozens of times, each statue is entirely unique. Worth the walk!

Statues are 1.5x the size of the subjects. We were surprised by the extent of the sculpture and returned to see it again. Nice walking path along the water. The site itself is interesting because of the nearby buildings and view of the skyline.

We saw this driving around OKC and had to find it. Was well worth it to see this in person. So many little interesting details, felt like the story came alive. The park is one we could have explored more, walking into the downtown area, our schedule did not allow for it.

I have never seen so much statue in one place in all my life! Jaw dropping really. This is an amazing site to visit, gorgeous scenery, and a nice walk from anywhere around Bricktown. I highly recommend seeing this as a tourist or a local. Such an important monument and completed way above any expectation I could have had.

This monument commemorates the 1889 land rush into Oklahoma. The statues are outstanding. Horses, riders, wagons, animals give the visitor a sense of grandeur and chaos. Larger than life scale allows the viewers a unique perspective. The parking, walkway and manicured grounds are easily accessible all around the monument. It was a leisurely 30-40 minute trip to see all sides.

My wife and I are on a cross-country road trip from South Carolina to California, and we stopped for an overnight stay in Oklahoma City. While here, we visited the Centennial Land run Monument. It's in the Bricktown district as part of the Chickasaw Plaza. The monument is actually several statues depicting the great Centennial Land Run of 1889. The statues are very big and well done. A person could spend quite a bit of time studying each sculpture, as each one is quite detailed and "tells the story" of the individual's journey. The combined sculptures are spread throughout the plaza, and a nice walkway allows guests to see each sculpture close up. There are also a few signs that tell about the land run and the historical significance of the event. I wish that we had more time to spend here as well as explore the nearby river walk. It's a nice place to stop, admire, and learn.

We were passing through OKC and made a quick detour to see this. Incredible statues! The description of the Land Run was very moving. Especially neat to see this historical scene against the backdrop of the OKC skyline. Well worth the detour! Hint: you drive through the Outdoor World parking lot to get to it. I was very confused about why GPS was taking me to Outdoor World!

Came here while this was being built and saw it after, it is a beautiful area to walk, not sure if your allowed to do the Lime Scooters, but great scenic spot for a date or to just get out and see. We took scooters and hit a bunch of different spots around town and this was a nice addition to the day.

These are some really cool detailed statues that is well worth going to see. The only problem was Google took me off of the interstate down some back roads that seem like the maintenance department for the park system in Oklahoma City. Both me and my brother were on our motorcycles and decided to stop and see this. We didn't see anybody else the entire time we was enjoying the little park and as we went to leave we had parked our motorcycles down by the edge of the road that they locked us in. There was a gate with a bar across the road that we could not get out. We couldn't find anybody to help us, so we ended up getting up on the sidewalks with our fully loaded Harley-Davidsons and riding the sidewalk to a parking lot close to a Bass Pro right there. I live in a major tourist destination in that would have never ever happened where I live. Though I never felt unsafe one bit just be leery that there is nobody around or at least not when I was there, so it's definitely opportunity for somebody to be a victim and from what I saw it is not in the very best of probably what Oklahoma City has to offer. I just cannot believe we were locked into that Park if we had of been in a car there would have been no way we could have gotten out and I have no idea who to contact other than the police. But please don't let this experience deter you from seeing this well captured depiction of the great land rush. The details in the statues are phenomenal. And it isn't quite a nice little Park that would be perfect for a picnic. And just look at the very last picture I had posted just the detail on the rabbit getting out of the way. It is a great venue well worth seeing.

I visited on a very rainy Tuesday. It was absolutely empty, and stunningly quiet, barring the sound of rain. The experience was amazing. For a moment a bit scary, as it was so empty, I only had the little duckie for company , and she/he was just snoozing in the rain. Normally on sunny days, the canal rides go by every now, and it is a beautiful stretch to just walk around.

The sculpture helped me understand the reality and brutalities that occurred in the land run and that era of history. The sculptures are stunning with face being different. The way they capture movement and the energy of the journey is phenomenal. Their layout among thee waterways have been really tastefully done. Thank you OKC

Amazing 🌺

Passing through for Christmas. I cannot say enough. Absolute, must stop. Donated and maintained by the state with no charge to tour. Even if you do not have Oklahoma Lineage, this is amazing. Minus seeing family, best 1 hour of our 2 week time off. Go Go Go. Will not disappoint.

The scale of this monument is something to behold. It’s free to the public and the park surrounding it is beautiful. Definitely worth a stop.

It is a beautiful place in OKC to walk along the canal to take in the amazing sculpture

Gorgeous place

Great night for a date! 91° chocolate cake and milk, sitting on a park bench.

Beautiful place to walk by the side of the water. The pathway goes by the water and around the statues. Anytime of the year is good to go there. Also in the fall the foliage colors are very nice.

(Translated by Google) Worth seeing. It wasn't quite ready, but there was a lot to discover. Many loving details. Addendum: It was one of the highlight of our trip. We had visited it in the evening hours and were almost alone. This allowed us to look at it in peace. Almost too good for a typically hectic photo stop. Since we are traveling alone we had a lot of time, and that was a good thing. I also looked for a geocache and enjoyed the sunset. (Original) Sehenswert. Es war noch nicht ganz fertig aber jede Menge zu entdecken. Sehr viele liebevolle Details. Nachtrag: Es war eins der Highlight unserer Reise. Wir hatten es in den Abendstunden besucht und waren fast allein. Dadurch konnten wir es in Ruhe betrachten. Für einen typisch hektischen Fotostop fast zu schade. Da wir allein reisen hatten wir viel Zeit, und das war gut so. Nebenbei noch einen Geocache gesucht und den Sonnenuntergang genossen.

This flora in this place has really proven the investment over time to make this place look like a prarie. The grasses have grown beautifully over the years. Attention to detail is great. Some and walkway even have horse shoe prints as if horses treaded and sped during the Centennial Land Run. Sculptures look clean and we'll maintained. This is a nice place to have a peaceful walk. There are many benches around the place.

Very impressive monument. It’s a must see in the city.

In November we were attending a wedding in Tulsa and drove down to OKC for the day. One of our surprise pleasures was finding the Centennial Land Rush Monument (near the river where we ate at Charleston’s Restaurant). The sculptures were so life like and told a rich story of the American West. If in OKC… take time to visit.

Such awesome place to walk. The views are beautiful. We also took the boat taxi to the same place but captain has lots of great stories and so much awesome history.

Very cool statues of people on horses and wagons running through the landscape. It is located right off 40 on the eastern side of OKC. These statues are really big too, very cool to walk around. One guy lost his hat and is trying to get it back. Another is in the process of falling off his horse. Definitely make the stop if you are in the area!

If you find yourself in the area, you need to walk along to canal walk, and see the sights. This display has such a movement to it! You truly feel like you have just stepped back in time, and witnessing an old west cattle drive.

The details are amazing. This is a must-see if you're ever in the area!

This place is AWESOME!! So much detail in statues. Stretches for a block or more.

I love it. Kids and adults enjoyed it. Is relaxing and beautiful. Mr. Mitch was the amazing guy who was telling us the history of the place during the boat ride.

You will learn a lot of intriguing Oklahoma history by visiting. The sculptures capture the frenzy of the "Land Run" of 1889.

We stopped here trying to check out the monument and the wall along the canal. Our first attempt to get into the parking lot was unsuccessful when we went over the bridge toward the River Sports area. In coming back around, we ended up in the right place. The monument is very impressive with many interesting details since as the man who last his hat and the stuff falling out of the wagon. The walk along the canal was pleasant and a nice opportunity to give our dog a chance to stretch her legs. More signage of how to make your way away from the monument toward Bricktown would have been helpful. Finding bridges across the canals was particularly straightforward.

A good place for evening walk. Beautiful and clean park with some nice sculptures. There's also a lake, bridge. Parking lot is so big. Easy entrance and it's free.

Wow. Pretty neat and intricate details on these oversized bronze statues, which cost 6M to put in. You should see it at least once.

This is a really lovely area! There is a bit of construction and they appear to be redoing the walkways and landscaping, but it is still beautiful. The monument is astounding and you can tell that they continuously add to it. I was walking with a local and they told me that the artist made his own face into one of the men driving a wagon and that some famous Oklahomans are also featured. It has the Riverwalk run right through it and has all natural plants native to Oklahoma. There are many benches and nice shady, relaxing spots to take breaks. There is also a fantastic trail that leads all around and into Brick Town. It is really amazing and worth it for a trip out in the sun.

(Translated by Google) Nice to see how the history of the ancestors was. (Original) Bonito para ver cómo fue la historia de los antepasados .

OKC deserves a big hand in maintaining the trails and adjacent businesses in this area . Although homelessness seems to be a bit of an overwhelming reminder of disparity of wealth , this area around the trail is somewhat well planned federally funded project worthy of a visit .

What a cool historical monument, and it's so big!

Wow we were in for a surpise! We arrived there in mid December during a snow storm. The park is in kind of a courious location, at the end of a vast parking lot and seems to lack connection to other publick spaces. That may be due to the fact tht we arrived in the middle of a snow storm and orientation was difficult. The oversized statues are impressive and very detailed, reminding us of the monuments in the National Mall in Washington, DC. You can see the excitement and struggles of the people trying to claim land. I guess they have a memorial nearby to explain what the natives thought about all this but due to the weather we did not make it there. It would have made for a better compete explanation.

We were just driving around and discovered it. What a happy accident! It's a stunning, moving monument and display.

(Translated by Google) Very nice monument. (Original) Muy bonito monumento.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing!!! If you are photographing this wonderful art, photograph it from all sides. Each side depicts a different scene and puts you in a different moment in time. You'll see multiple stories of what is going on with each individual person if you take the time to look. Break it into segments, pause, and look at each.. What an incredible artist or artists who created this and what an amazing memorial.

This place is very pretty. The monument is nice and it's the largest amount of bronze cast statues. The park area is very pretty with a little stream flowing through. I would totally chill there and read, hang out, do homework, etc. Check it out y'all!

Love this art treasure. Protect it from democrats that want to tear it down!

Amazing art and depictions of the actual sequences that took place. If you take the boat tour the guide explains the sculptures and the history to each one, uncovering unknown info about Oklahoma to me. Definitely worth checking out. Not on a 90 degree plus day though Kermit cool 🤘

Great area to hang out and walk. Plenty of room to spread out.

It's a very well crafted and designed monument. The surrounding area is a nice place to find shade, have lunch, find quiet. My favorite, was the man on his way down with his horse, ciggy still in his mouth. And the look of the horses about to leap over the water. It all looks like a moment frozen in time.

Beautiful statues. Spend some time looking at these and see the story they tell us about The Land Run.

Love the place and monuments. It's always quite and peaceful place to come and relax.

Beautiful scenery and very detailed art work.

This is a very nice park with a stream running through it. The sculptures are very large and detailed.

There are a lot of small details that make the statues unique. And the walk along the canal to it is pleasant.

I think we picked the wrong day to come because we came to take a nice family walk with our dog and they were a bunch of protesters with m14s and m16s walking around it was quite bizarre we weren't concerned about our safety or anything we were just wondering what was happening other than that the park is really nice and it is a great place to take the family on a walk just to enjoy the OKC scenery it has a connection to the bricktown Riverwalk which you can cross underneath a bridge also has connection to bricktown what are you doing canal so if you have time walk over from downtown and enjoy this wonderful place.

Cool park all the way around the monument. Pretty cool.

Very cool but some paths seem to end

Absolutely amazing!! Everyone should take the time to see this!

Very nice, there's plenty of statues each with character, there's also a nice small river by it, very much worth the visit 👍

You will be amazed at the length of this monument

Beautiful, larger than life Centennial Land Run sculpture surrounded by lovely walking paths and landscaping. Take a boat ride on the Bricktown canal while you are in the area and you will get to see at least part of the sculpture again from a different vantage point.

Great place to walk by the lake ❤️

This place is beautiful and neat!

Lots of pokéstops and good spot for Wizards Unite. Beautiful landscape too.

Great art work.

Great site for info on the land run of 1889. Tremendous statue figures that are incredibly detailed and bring the scene to life. Adult, child, and pet friendly. Between I Love This Bar and river. Great parking area.

Nice little park

Great monument :)

Very nice. Visited at dusk and had the place to ourselves. Worth the visit for sure.
