I give this place five stars (rare for me) because it goes against the grain of everything. It’s hidden, yet it stands out. It’s easy to overlook, yet hard to forget. It has a simple name, yet a distinction all of its own. Indianapolis isn’t known as a quirky city, but this small park puts Indy on the map without even trying to. It’s a park with a small trail leading to...wait for it...a major interchange of two interstates. But I realized that I was looking at a moving snapshot of America. While the sound of traffic can be annoying sometimes, the hum of trucks and cars on the freeways here almost sounds like the waves of an ocean. It’s a different kind of peace here. Serenity in the middle of busyness. Slowing my mind down in the midst of speeding traffic. This park is ingenious. Kudos to all who planned and designed Idle Park. Well done, my friends.
