Lonely Planet review for Malcolm X Park

This is an incredible bit of green space that gets short shrift in the list of America’s great urban parks. What makes it special is the way the park emphasizes its distinctive geography. Lying on the fall line between the upland Piedmont Plateau and flat Atlantic Coastal Plain, the grounds are terraced like a hanging garden replete with waterfalls, sandstone terraces and assorted embellishments that feel almost Tuscan. Out-of-towners call this Meridian Hill Park.
