Phillips Park – Aurora IL

Phillips Park is the largest park in the City of Aurora. It spans approximately 325 acres and contains a zoo, golf course, aquatic center, sunken garden, dog park, mastodon trail, boat dock, skate park and volleyball court.

Phillips Park was first designated as a park in 1899 and it was named Phillips Park in 1902. The park has undergone major renovations over the years to make it the “crown jewel” of parks that it is today!

I enjoyed a beautiful morning there this weekend. I went to the visitor center and the sunken garden, and a small part of the zoo. Below are some photos from my visit. Enjoy!
