Pope John Paul II Park, Boston — Attraction in Boston

It is nice that's the old drive in ground of neponset in Dorchester. I remember going to drive in as a child.

Best Park in the neighborhood. It has a play ground for the kids, a huge field that teams, kids and family utilize for soccer and football practice. Awesome area to picnic on lawn, perfect for kite flying and family also do fishing. The park has a huge trail for joggers and walker that wants to stay fit. The trail doesn't begin and ends at the park. It's a huge trail that runs into at lease three town, can't give you exact details you would have to check it out. Perfect for bike riding also. The park also has porter potties located in different areas around the park. Awesome park for the family. Every now and then in the summer months they also have movie nights. Check it out👍👍👍👍👍lots...
