Forest Park

Forest Park in St. Louis, Missouri, opened in 1876 and the former site of the Louisiana Purchase Exhibition of 1904, (the St. Louis World's Fair) is one of the large urban landscape parks created in the the U.S. during the later 19th century, following the example of Central Park in New York. At 1370 acres, Forest Park is considerably larger than Central Park.
