Liberty Bell Park

Jerusalem


This grassy expanse covers parts of the Germany Colony and Talbieh neighbourhoods, and it's good for a picnic and a little bit of shade on hot days. Kids can enjoy a playground, and there's an area for roller skating and basketball courts and soccer fields. It's named after the replica of Philadelphia's original liberty bell in the centre of the park.
