6. Lucy Park and Wichita Falls Waterfall

WICHITA FALLS.   As the Wichita River winds through town, it crosses this attractive public park, whose wide-open spaces invite Frisbee-playing and late-afternoon picnics. The park also features playground equipment, gardens, walking trails, and a pool. More than a century ago, the river originally fell several feet as it passed through the area, but these falls were eventually eradicated by a massive flood. In the late '80s, the city "rebuilt" the 54-foot falls, creating several tiers for water to rush over. They're now one of the city's most popular sites.   (© 10Best)
