Arcadia's central park: a big playground, a small pond with ducks and turtles, lawns and picnic tables under century-old trees, with the racetrack and library right across the street; everyday San Gabriel Valley life with kids.

💡 Tips
The playground is quiet and the shade is just right from 9–11am on weekends. Walk over to the Arcadia library, or catch a free park day at Santa Anita Park racetrack.
