Beautiful park and Art center with an antique carousel, dancing and lots of fun activities.
Built in the late 1800's, Glen Echo Park used to be an amusement park, and since its closure in the 1960's, it has undergone restorations and one of the most popular sites is the carousel, as it's the only functioning ride now. Still a pretty park and there's always some kind of event going on there.
