    What makes it fun

    Henri-L on Gr ber sculpted the Fountain in Mill Creek Park in 1910, and it was installed in 1960. This fountain is the most well-known and photographed of the city's fountains. It's near the east end of the popular Country Club Plaza district and the south end of Mill Creek Park. The fountain features four heroic horsemen who are said to represent four of the world's great rivers: the Mississippi, Volga, Seine, and Rhine. It also includes four smaller figures of children playing on fish, also known as dolphins.

    Went on a date with my wife to a bunch of different Kansas City fountains and it was so fun. This is a great park.

    Why are the fountains not running? What good is a fountain with no water?

    Very fun to walk around. A lot of shops, art, and music. There was a lot of construction around the area though

    It’s good to spend time here dog walking, jogging, running, sitting & pondering (about life or nothing in particular).

    Such a cute park. The walking trail was the perfect combination of ups, downs, and curves. I bet it will be beautiful come spring. Perfect for all ages. We plan to come every Sunday to prep for an upcoming 5k.

    I always enjoy seeing this fountain every time I visit, yes it's not the biggest in the world or whatever others complain about but it's unique to KC. My only issue is the homeless that hang around it, takes away from your comfort zone and enjoyment. Seems like more and more homeless are popping up in the plaza area. At night didn't feel too safe had some homeless lady yelling at me trying to get my attention, some drunken kids were running around acting like fools. They should have some patrols in there.

    Great place to walk around. I wonderful place enjoy the beautiful fountain and take pictures. It is so relaxing to just sit there in front of the fountain and watch the water as well as the people. Best place to take pictures both in the daytime and at night. I recommend checking out this historic and ironic spot when on the Country Club Plaza!

    Stopped here once for brunch and got a sandwich I can't pronounce. Lol It was really good and the mimosas were good. The atmosphere and service was good, but there may be a wait at times. Reservations are recommended. Was a little pricey for me, and gratuity was automatically added. I always tip, but I'm not a fan of automatically adding it.

    Beautiful space dedicated to those diagnosed with, and have not survived cancer. My mother would love it.
