Touted as “an interactive sound sculpture experience,” the park is comprised of a handful of musical instruments in a natural acoustic setting.

There’s no other park in the U.S. like it. Its individuality isn’t its only unique feature, though.

The way all the instruments are harmoniously tuned to each other is also among the park’s distinctive features.

Even the instruments are unique – each is made mostly of found and re-purposed materials.

The highlight of the park, though, is no doubt the 20-foot-long chime, known as Give Peace A Chance (GPAC).

Mr. Plant, a drum-like instrument, is also a popular park feature.

In addition to GPAC and Mr. Plant, there are two other instruments scattered throughout the park.

Each instrument is different but they can all be played by hand or with the soft mallets provided.
