It's a beautiful park. We went at night and it was a beautiful backdrop. It wasn't crowded. We took some great pictures. The I ❤️ Philly sign is there. We walked there from our hotel. We felt safe even at night. Great place for the family for an outing or a date night. There's also a LOVE sign there that makes for great pictures

The Love Park In Philadelphia, also known as the John F. Kennedy Plaza, has two iconic signs -- the Love installation and the I ❤️ Philly. What I love is a visitor can pose next to one of these signs and the photo will come out nicely. The signs do much of the work. There is a Love Park Fountain which is refreshing for kids during the warm months. The best pictures are on a summer day even if overcast and the colors will come out vibrant. I went in the summer and late fall. The late fall photos struggle with the reds. More grass and seating areas would enhance this park. Maybe have an artistic competition where people can submit designs for benches. Trees would be good to take on some of the heat, but would block the views of the lovely buildings. Maybe put a cluster of trees off to the side where visitors can go for respite. It's a hot park in warm months with the heat bouncing off the cement and stone.

Nice park in smaller scale with good views across from City Hall Building. So the park is in the middle of the City. LOVE sculpture is here. There is usually a line to take pictures with it. Winter village with shops, small Christmas tree operates during the holidays season. You can always see people here, walking, enjoying nice weather days. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A really beautiful gem in the middle of the city. This park is full of fountains, art installations such as the I ❤️ Philly sign and the famous Love sculpture - both make for great photo ops. A lot of Philly folks experiencing homelessness seem to call this home during the daylight hours, occupying seating by the fountain, using the fountain to get clean, and blasting music under the trees that line the park. This did not detract too much from the beauty and enjoyment of the green spaces and the sculptures.

My first time in Philadelphia and I chose to visit the Love Park to see and take photos of the Love Sculpture on Valentine’s Day. It was a wonderful experience! I highly recommend to all tourists. FYI, the love Park Visitor Center is closed on Mondays but you can find lovely souvenirs at the Independence Visitor Center too if you decide to visit on a Monday like I did.

Love Park is cute when it's all clean. Christmas village is here which is cool to walk through and get holiday festivities going. However throughout the year, lots of homeless in the park.

Love Park - A Must-Visit for Tourists in the Heart of the City! 🏙️ During my morning visit to JFK Plaza, I couldn't help but be amazed. This urban oasis is a perfect retreat in the bustling city. With its spacious and well-maintained greens, it's an ideal spot for relaxation. The presence of comfortable benches only enhances the experience, providing a serene place to sit and take in the surroundings. What's more, JFK Plaza is a pet-friendly haven, making it perfect for animal lovers. The view from this park is simply breathtaking, offering a unique perspective of the cityscape. I highly recommend this place to all tourists. It's a hidden gem in the heart of the city, where you can unwind and soak in the beauty of Philadelphia. Don't miss out on this tranquil and scenic escape! 🌳🐾🌆. Hit 👍 if it was helpful! ©️MillionDollarTravelling

A friend and I were recently there for the Christmas market. There were a lot of new things this year and we both felt it was set up a lot better than in years past. And there was some thing for everyone. We just happened to be there when someone got engaged at the love statue! A really great atmosphere and I would recommend it to anyone visiting at this time of year.

I love the park here. Parking is not that great, but the area is lovely and enjoyable if you're interested in big cities. There is paid parking available underground also.

Thanks to the revitalization project, LOVE Park has transitioned from an okay place to hang out with hostile infrastructure to a great place for events, to relax, or even for children to play in the water. It's good seeing the great changes like this to the city.

Philadelphia’s gathering place. In the heart of Center City (Downtown) across from City Hall and easily reached by transit. Home to the famous LOVE sculpture. At time of writing this review, home to the Christmas Village. Currently NO RESTROOMS in the actual park itself.

An excellent place to visit. Right in the middle of city center. You will have full view of the downtown Philadelphia. In front you can see Philadelphia museum of art and the road full of National flags of different countries. Also There is I love philly sculpture and Love sculpture. Famous place for taking pictures. Very well connected place.

A simple must visit park in Philadelphia. Has the icon LOVE icon that's Philadelphia is known for. Park is always lively from people just hanging out, kids playing in the water, and various small events. It's nice to visit whether during the day or evening. It was still crowded around 11p and felt safe with the crowds. Great place to relax and take in the sights and sounds of downtown Philadelphia.

What’s not to love? Standing in line for a photo. Neither of the two noteworthy signs here are so amazing that you should wait around to take photos with them. But the park has gorgeous flowers and some seating and small shop stalls and a fountain. So it’s not the worst. :)

Beautiful downtown Park! Plenty of small shops and food nearby, and great sights! Take a picture at the huge "I ❤ Philly" sign!

It was busy because it was such a nice day.. it was also awesome because there was live music... i love that they have tables and chairs for people to be able to enjoy the love music.. it was clean and you can see the hard working people trying to keep up and keep the place clean, kudos to them.

This was on our must-see list of things to do in Philadelphia. The park itself is very family friendly. There were kids playing in the water fountains. Parking was tricky unless you get lucky and catch someone pulling away from the limited street parking as you're pulling up. There are guys there who will take your picture with your camera for you for a tip.

Must stop photo spot in Philly! Iconic Love statue in a great little public space near City Hall in Center City. Great atmosphere here in this nice, open spot within the skyscrapers. There was a “staff” person there to take your photo, small tip appreciated. Took ours from multiple angles. Might have a short wait to get pics.

Iconic park for tourists, but I miss the skateboarding... The park includes unobstructed views of both City Hall and the Philadelphia Art Museum. They also recently added free tables, chairs, and assorted games like corn hole. A lot of thought has gone into seasonal landscaping, too, which came as a pleasant surprise.

Great view in the city. Some water fountains for children to play with. Some chairs to sit and enjoy the people pass by. There are ping pong tables and other things to do. There is a parking garage right below.

Sat here all night! Very busy during the night but very calm during the evening!!! Absolutely beautiful place! Water gets turned off at 11pm. Chairs and tables are provided.

Are you from out of town too? Compared to Chicago, this city feels safer, yet the violent crime is on the rise. The tension in the air is softened by the lovely nature of the Philadelphians. I find these people here to be more open and warmer.. despite what they say about themselves. Around the city, it's reasonably safe, clean, and pleasant to walk around as there are many historical buildings reflecting a time rich with historical and monumental events. I was never very fond of the US, yet I find myself thinking that this city is livable. ~ a note to self, I see plenty of opportunities here.

When in the City of Love for Valentines Day you go to Love Park!!! Had a wonderful time! The weather was cold I think it was in the 30s-40s so we had to keep moving to stay warm. Just a sight to witness in person. Beautiful architecture surrounds this little park.

An amazing park where you can have a picture taken with the LOVE sign. Make sure you stand in line to have your picture taken after another tourist asks you to take their picture. Then ask him or her kindly to take your picture with your couple. Enjoy!

Christmas Village 2023 Lots of of vendors with many to choose from. Very few German vendors but you can get Bratwurst, pretzels, strudel, Roasted nuts, Nürnberger lebkuchen and other morsels. Other food and wine vendors. Must get the mulled wine and collectors cup. Nice entertainment too.

I wasn't expecting much other than the statue itself but we ended up really liking this place! There's cornhole and ping pong, and lots of chairs to sit and people watch. A must-see in Philly!

I wish there was a Love world and not just a park in PA! The park is wonderful I could certainly see feel and hear the love shared among others💜

Loved to see people out dancing and having fun. They redid the fountain. Looks good but I liked the old one better.

It's ok. Too many people hanging around bugging you asking if you want your picture taken then ask for money. Honestly I thought there was more to this park then there was. It was so cool and nice out so we walked down to Logan Square. SO nice down there and an amazing waterfountain. Side note, the parking below Love park is amazing. It's locked so you feel secure and your car. Not as pricey as the other lots either. I was pleasantly surprised.

Beautiful place to hang out in between the city. Happening place and have many good food options too

I enjoy love park I have been there twice. First time was with my boyfriend John before he passed away around Christmas in 2015. I can't help but think of him anytime I go there. Anyway definitely a perfect little stop to get hydrated if biking in the city and you happen to get dehydrated. I would suggest doing this with the right partner to make sure you don't have memories you wish you never made.

Lovely place and great pictures!! Alot of monopoly statues! Be aware of people asking to take pictures of you with ur phone ( it's a scam they will constantly ask u for money or they will run with ur phone)

This park is set amongst some absolutely gorgeous buildings. On Nov 18th begins tge Christmas Markets and it looks worth stopping by. In other times, take a stroll around this park and surrounding area..so beautiful!

Christmas village in love park it the best way to celebrate the season. It's a must go every year for either a date night or trip with the kids.

Michael and I were just relaxing and enjoying the day at Love Park. Michael grabbed a dunkin' donut hot coffee, and I enjoyed an apple fritter, which was absolutely scrumptious.

It was so pretty and cute! I was just passing through but it was so beautiful and got to take cute photos! Parking was a pain. But of course it's a big city so its expected. And the city hall is right by it as well!

JFK Plaza, also known as Love Park, is famous for being home to Robert Indiana's Love Sculpture. The sculpture has been around since 1976. It is a very busy place for pictures and selfies. The park is located nearby City Hall and many other popular stores and restaurants. JFK Plaza is a must visit if you are in the Philadelphia area.

The park speaks for itself Love Park. I'm always excited to visit here. It's a Family and Lovers place to be. Just adoring the view and happiness that's in the atmosphere and on the visitors faces is breathtaking. A must go to place any time of the day or year.

I toured Love Park at 730am on a Thursday during the holidays. Serene and peaceful, decorated with a Christmas village, it was a joy to finally see the Love sculpture in person. I forgot to take a selfie! There was also a beautiful I Love Philly sculpture/sign at the opposite side of the park. There is a great view of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, as well as City Hall. Several pop-up holiday bars are set up nearby as well.

Very nice location. We came in during December for the holiday season. Lots of venders, good food, drinks. Lots of holiday joy. There’s also a starbucks in case you want one of your daily drinks here. Nice benches to sit at and enjoy the view, surrounded by big beautiful buildings.

We were in Philadelphia for the ISTE Live 23 Discover Your Next Conference. I could see Love Park from my hotel window at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. Love Park was in walking distance and on our list of attractions. I was very surprised at the size.

Super fun people watching! We sat in the comfy chairs on Sunday morning. The cake pop up shop was our favorite. It was great listening to music, shopping and people watching. They also had a cool Day of the Dead display.

I am guessing it is currently under renovations or something. Or it could havr been they were breaking down from an event, but there were pallets and trash around. Took away from enjoying the "Love and I ❤ Philly" signs. Maybe when I return for another visit it will be better...

If you’re headed to this spot make sure to bring your partner or a friend to help you take pictures. This place is definitely selfie worthy! I took pictures by the live statue and there’s fountains and seats to sit in this park and look at the architecture. Don’t forget to find the AMOR sign too. I missed it this trip.

Great place to take pictures, especially during Christmas which has a lot of kiosk selling miscellaneous items. They have live bands and they sell coffe and hot chocolate in diffrents kioos around the park.

Went to the Christmas village at love park. German food and chocolate shops filled the park ! Was very crowded though.

The park is small and usually crowded, but it's well maintained and has great photo opportunities. The new fountain is a nice, colorful addition. If you can catch the I love Philly sign at sunset it is absolutely gorgeous.

More than just the LOVE statue, but not too much more. There's a lot of places to sit, a wonderful fountain, ping pong tables and entertainment throughout the year. If it had restrooms it would be an easy 5 stars.

I was out walking around the city and came to love Park. This is my first time here. It’s a nice space with plenty of seating for people to hang out and watch the fountains and listen to the water. There a lot of people that are traversing it and lots of people just sitting around relaxing doing various things. It’s in the middle of the hustle and bustle of downtown with cars and sirens all the time. I really like the water fountains. It would be a nice relaxing place minus all of the vehicle traffic.

It's a centre piece of attraction. A must visit by tourist to view the amazing view of Philly city right from City Hall with the flags of various nations adorning the parkway on either side. It's a feast to eyes and not to be missed. Seating accommodation is available around the colorful fountains. Snacks, eateries are available. It's festive time here. Every day different programs are arranged in the evenings which adds attraction to the locals as well as visitors.
