Park sights in Bristol

  1. The Downs

    Near the bridge, the grassy parks of Clifton Down and Durdham Down (often referred to as just the Downs) make a fine spot for a picnic. Nearby, a well-worn observatory houses a camera obscura and a tunnel leading down to the Giant's Cave, a natural cavern that emerges halfway down the cliff with dizzying views across the Avon Gorge.
