Mud Island River Park, Memphis (June, 2002)

 
The replica Mississippi River was absolutely incredible.  For someone who enjoys geography the model is like a huge toy!  =)

Each bend, feature, island, contour, bluff--you name it--was built into the model with complete accuracy.  Cities along the river were laid out with streets and features.  Bridges are present where they exist in real life.  Even notable ship wrecks are accounted for in the river bed.

This park is definitely unique!
