Lafayette Park, Washington, D.C.

A garden bed in Washington, D.C.'s Lafayette Park pops with red tulips and grape hyacinths. Located just across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House, this 7-acre (2.8-hectare) square, also known as Presidents Park, is a popular place for protests and celebrations. Named after Marquis de Lafayette, a French hero of the American Revolution, the park features four statues of Revolutionary War heroes and an equestrian statue of Andrew Jackson, seen here, in the middle.
