Gardens, fountains, and natural springs make Congress Park the perfect setting for a fall walk, and it is conveniently located downtown in Saratoga Springs.

Congress Park is also the home of the Canfield Casino, now a history museum, which was a Gilded Age casino that hosted the likes of JP Morgan and the Vanderbilt families. Make sure to get a photo with the Native Dancer race horse statue (among the most famous horses to ever race at the Saratoga race track), located at the corner of Union and Circular.
