Review:

Unpack a Pandora’s Box of archaeological marvels when you visit Florida’s fascinating Crystal River Archaeological State Park. The 61-acre national park protects remains of ancient pre-Colombian and Native American civilizations and is believed to have been the longest continuously used burial site in Florida. After you have admired the burial mounds (you can climb to the top of the main 30-foot mound to see how it was constructed) and visited the interpretive center and the museum you can enjoy several outdoor activities. Visitors can go hiking, biking and fishing or explore the park on a boat tour. Picnicking and geo-caching are other popular park activities.
