Presidio Park
San Diego, CA
Free park
By Simir Shah
The hillside park above Old Town where San Diego was founded in 1769, with lawns, Palm Canyon, and the Inspiration Point overlook. The Spanish-style Junípero Serra Museum at the top keeps limited seasonal hours, so check before planning around it. It pairs well with a walk down to Old Town San Diego State Historic Park.
