Martyrs Park

A heckofawalk and a riddleOfARide! Since it's refresh - for me.... Dntwn Mphs River area for recreation is definitely one of the top 3 parks in the Metro Memphis area to cycle, walk, bring the babies. Head over the bridge (be mindful of the seemingly ever growing incline on the way back though 🥵) to West Memphis - down the path aside the Mississippi River /or down to Riverside - either way, nice walk or bicycle ride - it does provide!! Have fun ☺️😊☺️

I go walking at The Big River Crossing on the weekends. It’s a beautiful place to go for a peace of mind. Some people run & some ride their bikes or scooters provided there for a fee of course

Great place to sit and view the Mississippi river. Eat some bfast or drink coffee. Many people I saw running or walking their dogs. Even some people rented bikes and biked all the way to beale st. Fyi - windy and slightly chiller because of the river so bring a layer!

My wife and I were looking for a good place to take a picture of the Mississippi River, and our search led us to Martyrs Park. It is a good place to see the river, but there is more to the park than that. The name Martyrs Park is named for those who gave their lives to help the thousands of people who were stricken with Yellow Fever near the turn of the 20th century. I did not know how Memphis was so significantly affected by these epidemics in the past, so it was a learning experience for me. The park is beautiful and well maintained and we were glad that we took the time to visit.

This is my place of peace...... I have been coming here since I was 15 years old and old enough to drive...... I found it one day when I first started driving I was trying to turn around because I was scared to go over the bridge lol.... That's when I found the metal museum this park and it really peaked and interest in downtown Memphis for me I love it down here on the riverbank
