Did you know the world’s smallest park is only 452 square inches? 😆 Mill Ends Park in Portland, Oregon, proves that even the smallest things can bring joy and inspiration.

What started as a playful idea turned into a beloved landmark, earning a Guinness World Record in 1971 as the tiniest park on Earth. 🙌🏼 Despite its size, Mill Ends Park has sparked big smiles, fun celebrations, and a sense of pride for Portlanders. It reminds us that creativity, humor, and care can transform even the smallest spaces into something extraordinary. 🫶🏼 Would you visit Mill Ends Park to see this quirky little piece of history?
