Benjamin Banneker Historical Park and Museum
Situated in this 142-acre (57.5-hectare) park, at the end of one of many hiking trails, is a museum in tribute to Benjamin Banneker, known as the first African-American man of science. Set within a replica of the log cabin he resided in, you can learn of his life and work or simply lose yourself in the orchards. Bring a picnic and traipse past the beehives to find yourself a perfect spot to relax and refuel after the museum.
