In the distance, you can see some of the old Circuit City office buildings. This is behind the office park at Westerre Parkway, home to several fabulous businesses. Sometimes you can spy turtles sunning themselves. geese feeding and preening, and the occasional water bird like a heron or something. It’s all very tranquil. They put that fountain in there so much doesn’t grow on top. Nice.
A great shot of the stairs and cascading waterfall that lead from the Italian Gardens to the Japanese Garden in Maymont.
Byrd Park features open parkland that is great for any number of outdoors activities or see some of Richmond’s history. The 287-acre park also has three large and scenic lakes. The one pictured here is called Boat Lake on account of the paddle boats that occupy the waters during the summer.
