Echo Park Lake




 
 
Whether its morning, afternoon or evening…sun, rain or wind we Southern Californians enjoy walks through the park. And now that summer is finally in full-swing we find ways of staying fresh as we begin to hit high 80’s to 90’s. Today I wanted to share with you a park that brings back many childhood memories. Built in the 1860s as a reservoir for drinking water, Echo Park Lake is an iconic landmark just a few miles from Downtown Los Angeles and right behind the hills of Dodger Stadium. After a two-year rehabilitation project the park is now open to the public. When in town come and visit. I know for a fact that the Echo Park community is waiting for the annual Lotus Festival. Meanwhile, I am waiting for them to open that little station with those colorful rowboats so I can go right under the fountain.

Thank you for stopping by!
