Nature and Parks in Philadelphia

"Along with the Liberty Bell and Rocky steps, the bright red LOVE sculpture is one of Philly’s most iconic images. LOVE Park is officially named JFK Plaza, but no one calls it that. The plaza sits at the front of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, which leads to the Museum of Art. LOVE Park, with its famous sculpture and fountain, is a popular place for anyone to sit and hang out in the heart of Center City." - MATADOR_NETWORK

Bud & Marilyn’s Owners Are Opening a Restaurant in LOVE Park’s Flying Saucer Building | Eater Philly

"Turney and Safran are working on Loveluck, an indoor/outdoor eatery in LOVE Park (officially John F. Kennedy Plaza) that will occupy the mid-century modern, UFO-shaped Fairmount Park Welcome Center building; the building has been closed for a few years for an extensive renovation that is part of the park’s larger renovation that began in early 2016. According to the Fairmount Park Conservancy website, the restaurant will have about 50–55 seats inside and roughly 135 seats on a balcony and an adjoining park-level terrace." - Rachel Vigoda

❤️ Love Park (John F. Kennedy Plaza) Love Park—officially named the John F. Kennedy Plaza and designed by Edmund Bacon—sits at the heart of Philadelphia and features Robert Indiana’s iconic LOVE sculpture. The contemporary piece, with its bold typographic design, is a reproduction of the original sculpture housed at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. I’ve always appreciated this sculpture for its character, concept, and playfulness. The precise arrangement of the letters, the unifying geometric forms, and the tilted “O” create a striking graphic presence. Its visual power often makes people think the sculpture is larger than it really is. The installation is beautifully executed. The LOVE sculpture sits atop an open metal base that allows it to feel both elevated and seamlessly integrated into the landscape. At the center of the park, a large fountain with an illuminated jet spray provides a dramatic backdrop—adding both movement and a refreshing atmosphere. The park itself is welcoming, with green lawns, flowerbeds, built-in benches, picnic tables, cafe-style seating and walking paths. It’s a perfect place to pause, relax, and take in the urban energy of Philadelphia. ❤️ LOVE PARK HIGHLIGHTS • Free Admission: Outdoor park, no reservations required • Hours: Open daily, 7 a.m.–10 p.m. • Accessibility: Wheelchair-accessible paths and restrooms • Family & Dog Friendly: Great spot for visitors of all ages • Photo Opportunities: Iconic backdrop for memorable pictures • Location: Across from City Hall and Dilworth Park; near the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Franklin Institute • Seasonal Events: Hosts the annual Christmas Village in November and December, featuring festive lights, gifts, and local vendors

Went here to see my younger brother take his wedding vows with the love of his life!! It was simply beautiful!! Parking was easy in the garage underground. Finding a restroom is difficult, fyi... I would highly recommend other couples take advantage!

Absolutely loved the Christmas market, they have live music and tons of vendors (including authentic German food). It gets very crowded at times though.

Was over this way a few days ago because I was in the area. Got to see the LOVE statue which was really cool to see up close. Great views of the city here and nice place for photos too.

An iconic location in Philly! I photographed a recent surprise proposal for a couple in front of the LOVE sign! IG: @jonflemingphotography jonflemingphotography.com

The sign is much smaller than I thought it would be. There is a cute fountain / splash pad set up for the kids to play in the hot summer days. The biggest downfall is there are some very shifty characters over there and a very strong smell of illegal substances. Nobody really bothered anyone so that was good. Cute little quick stop.

The wife wanted to check out the little Christmas Village. It was nice. Parking is expensive $30, but it is the city. There was quite a few vendors there.

The famous Robert Indiana statue of Love installed in the city in the bicentennial year of 1976. Probably the most photographed item in Philly. Don’t get Robert Indiana confused with Robert California the former Sabre CEO and latterly Regional manager of Dundee Mifflin in Scranton PA. In February 2025 the LOVE statue was briefly joined by the ‘Hurts’ temporary statue. Go Birds. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
