Maymont Japanese Garden
Park
👍👍 This place is huge considering it has a petting zoo/farm for the whole family. Walking around the whole park is great for picnics and great photo settings. The Japanese Gardens are great, colorful, waterfall so refreshing, fish, turtles and cute little bridges to cross. Great photo opportunities.

T. Tyler Potterfield Memorial Bridge
Bridge
👍👍 Great views of the city and the river! Bring sunglasses when it's sunny out, the metal decking can get blindingly bright. If you're running, pick your feet up, the decking has some joints that stick up ever so slightly - just enough to cause you to trip!
