City Park is a 330-acre neighborhood park in east-central Denver that is home to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, the Denver Zoo, the Ferril and Duck Lakes, and a charming boathouse. The park, which is the main park in the city, also plays hosts to several summer concerts which draw thousands of visitors every season, and offers an array of outdoor recreational activities, such as boating, paddle-boating, and kayaking on the lakes, hiking, and biking in the nature trails, and private events and functions can be held at the boathouse. Ferril Lake is home to the Prismatic Fountain which was designed and built by engineer Frederic W. Darlington in 1908 and features bright LED lights which cycle through different formations.
