What travelers are saying
- jaseatonSilver Spring, MD2,762 contributionsWe we t to see an afternoon screening of No Other Land, an Israeli-Palesrinian documentary of the piece by piece destruction of the Palestian filmmakers centuries-old village on the West Bank by the Israeli army and settlers over 5 years and more-- i.e crimes that long pre-dated the Oct 2023 massacre by Hamas. Depressing as hell but important to see. Fortunately, the theater is an ideal setting. To be one of just two in the entire U.S. to screen it.Written March 1, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- CyndiMomManhattan Beach, CA307 contributionsHuge park - so many things to do here. But we went on a Monday and the attractions were closed. Our grandson did enjoy the playground area a lot and we hope to come back again with him when the other things are open.Written August 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Tiffany A.Newnan, GA7 contributionsIt's a neat little place. The Lincoln artifacts are amazing and the rest of the collection is pretty neat. We ran in for 30 mins before they closed, and made a good quick pass through. If you're in the area and like history, it's worth a stop!Written December 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

* Beautiful green oasis in urban/suburban areas
* "an oasis of nature" from the urban concrete
* Long winding shaded trails

* Populated by deer and birds/ducks/swans
CONS
* Significant traffic volume on parts where there is a road

* Trails shared by a good number of bicyclists- without any designated lane at all!!
"I VISITED THIS PLACE"...
... when I came out for my daily 0530am power walk, and expected to wander around streets and neighborhoods and shopping centers, but found an entrance into the woods and was entranced and thrilled to find all the paths in this lush shaded green park.... and then, every morning was another adventure- wandering through the paved trees and ending up in Wheaton or other parts of Silver Spring. I always spent at least half an hour, and once I walked for almost two hours. Exploring the park became my standard default activity from 0530am during my two week vacation there.
TIPs
* Do it and go
* Beware of fast bicyclists sharing the walking path
* Deer easily visible at dusk (yes- I walked after 1900H also.

The Civic Center is a poll location during elections. At other times it hosts meetings from small to large. We attended the "Homecoming" session for Leadership Montgomery in a large meeting room. About 500 people were in attendance and everything worked fine. Major hors d'oeuvres were served in the hallway outside and there was a free bar for the invited attendees. A great time was had by all, and parking was directly across the street. Couldn't get more convenient.Written October 4, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- jinxminxTakoma Park, MD455 contributionsThe Silver Spring Library was tiny and much more off the main drag when I was growing up. It has been replaced by this lovely, central, community oriented building with lots of light and space to sit and read. Even a coffee shop on the ground floor (though you can't take coffee into the library).Written January 13, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- jaseatonSilver Spring, MD2,762 contributionsThe Forum is a tiny stage next door to the AFI movie theater in downtown Silver Spring. Pretty sure this used to be the space where Roundhouse was in one of its many earlier incarnations. The small stage is viewed by an audience of about 100 max seated in four rows on both sides of a rectangular stage. The performance we saw was Nat Turner in Jerusalem, a 2-person cast show set on Turner's last night before execution. Not especially gripping drama, but the Forum's mission is to elevate your consciousness, not to stage compelling drama. Not sure they accomplished even that mission, but technically the staging was flawless, and the cast, one actor playing Turner and the other actor alternating between the roles of his jailer and the scribe assigned to take his confessions, were not guilty of the playwright's shortcomings. Note: the Forum is only a part-time producer in this space which is shared with our drama companies.Written March 29, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ruth GColumbia, MD1,131 contributionsMy dad took us somewhere interesting every Saturday when we were kids. This train station was one of our stops. Now it’s a museum and a party venue. It was locked up when we got there, but we could look in the window at the restored interior with its rows of benches and ticket counter as well as railroad memorabelia.Written July 1, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
