Washington Park

PARK REVIEW

Washington Park is a great park to visit, and it's very crowded even on the weekdays! It's the oldest park in Burlingame, but the playground equipment is very new and in great condition. The park and its facilities have a lot to offer for families. I particularly enjoyed the old trees that I saw here.
