Amazing park - and not the internment site

Frank S. Ortiz Dog Park

This dog park is the best kept secret in Santa Fe. Come here for a little joy, whether you have dogs or not, and have a nice walk within the park, then follow any of the trails that connect in behind it. Huge, with beautiful views of 4 different mountain ranges as well as downtown Santa Fe. Great for sunsets and firework watching.

Also, this is NOT the site of the WWII Japanese Internment Camp -- it is simply the home of the memorial marker. The camp itself, as the memorial stone clearly states (see picture below), was in the neighborhood below the park, to the east (Casa Solana). Repeat, the camp was not in the park, despite reviews here. So... your dog's karma will not be sullied.
