A Breath of Fresh Air


Being a college student, I’m sure we all can agree, is one of the most exciting, adventurous times of our lives. Going to classes, being bogged down with homework, and making sure to keep a very busy social life can at times seem overwhelming; this is why I suggest a close, peaceful getaway.

Nearly over an hour away, in Spokane, Washington resides Manito Park. Driving an hour may seem like a hassle just to visit a park, but I can assure you, this is unlike any other park you may have seen.

This ninety acre park is home to five gardens, which hold some of the most immaculate flowers known to the state. Another perk of this park is its large pond, home to swans, geese, and ducks.

Manito Park is one of Spokane’s most talked about visitation areas, and for a great reason. So, next time you are feeling stressed out, and want a place to go spend a peaceful, relaxing day without having to travel very far, I strongly urge you to make this short drive.
