This is a wonderful place to take children - the topiary makes the garden seem like a magical world where anything in a storybook coming to life is possible. It is very close to downtown, the parking is plentiful, and it is a great way to spend an hour or so on a trip to Columbus. All ages will enjoy... More

Beautiful place to walk. It was so interesting how the shrubs were made to look like the painting ! Just a beautiful serene place to visit. Nice walk way all around too.

One of my favorite spots in Columbus! A true hidden gem- it's in an out of the way location and is a place even some Columbus natives haven't been to. A beautiful place to spend an afternoon with a great book, or enjoying lunch with friends and family. Educational and gorgeous!

I am rating this park experience as a 50 something adult... It was the perfect place to bring our deli lunch and relax a bit while visiting the Columbus area. The topiaries were really unique, and I got some great shots with them as the focal point as well as interesting blurs while focusing on the water birds or people.... More

The main library, located a stone's throw away is purported to be purchasing the grounds and building of the previous deaf school. Given that the CML has been honored as the best in the nation for 2011/2012, it's sure to do amazing things with an already unique and beautiful place.

I enjoy walking around this park in the summer. The topiaries are amazing! I make sure to check them out up close to see the growth that has taken place since I last visited. There is a charming gift shop in the park as well. During the summer they have music on certain days during the lunch hour. There are... More

This is a special gem in Columbus! It is a wonderful replica of Seurat's painting An afternoon on Le Grande Jette all done with plants! You must see this free and fabulous attraction!

My office was across the street from what is now Topiary Park for many years. I have been witness to the evolution of this specatular park and its depiction of Sunday Afternoon on the Island of Grande Jatte since its inception and birth as a collection of yews and bent metal. It is the best cared for of the city... More
