What travelers say:
The park itself is beautiful and I really love the area in the fountain center. The park is close to the national capital landmark building and it is a really beautiful sight. I attended a community event there and something happened in this park throughout the year. If you want to get rid of urban life and be surrounded by nature, the park is such a good place.

Bushnell Park Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Bushnell Park, located in Hartford, the capital of Connecticut, is the first park in the United States. Conceived by Reverend Horace Bushnell in the mid-1850s, the need for open public spaces was just beginning to be recognized. Pastor Bushnell asked his good friend Frederick Law Olmsted to design the layout of the park. But Olmsted was busy designing Central Park in New York City and Forest Park in Springfield (Massachusetts), so he recommended Jacob Weidenmann, a Swiss-born landscape architect and botanist who designed the beautiful trails and groves, and the park river that flows through the park.
