Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park is a 19-acre urban park that was originally opened in 1996 to commemorate the state's bicentennial anniversary celebration. The park, which is located near the Tennessee State Capitol Building in Nashville's downtown district, showcases design elements that pay tribute to the state's history and culture, including a 1,400-foot Pathway of History with inscriptions detailing the state's chronology, and a Walkway of Counties, featuring planters of different native flora species around the state. Other attractions include a World War II memorial, a 200-foot map of the state etched in granite, and a 95-bell carillon, with one bell representing each of the state's counties and its musical legacy.
