Hot Springs Arkansas is a city located in the Ouachita Mountains.
The city is a popular vacation destination in the United States and it's full of popular attractions. Here is a list of our top things to do in Hot springs Arkansas.
1) Hot Springs National Park
It’s not surprising that the main attraction in Hot Springs, Arkansas is Hot Springs National Park.The park is the smallest of the U.S. National Parks and includes portions of downtown Hot Springs, making it one of the most accessible national parks. There are numerous hiking trails and camping areas. Unlike most other national parks, admission to Hot Springs National Park is completely free.This park boasts both indoor and outdoor activities to keep families busy for a day or weekend outing.Bathing in spring water is available in facilities at extra cost.
2) Bathhouse Row
3) Hot Springs Mountain Tower
Hot Springs Mountain Tower provides travelers with amazing views of the surrounding area. Those who ride the tower elevator to the top observation decks at 216 feet will enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Ouachita Mountains, Hot Springs Mountain, and Diamond Lakes area at 1,256 feet above sea level.
4) Lake Catherine State Park
5) Garvan Woodland Gardens
Garvan Woodland Gardens is a 210-acre botanical garden of the University of Arkansas located approximately 6 miles from Hot Springs National Park in the picturesque Ouachita Mountains of Southwest Arkansas. The garden has a lot more than flowers, There are numerous attractions including architectural structures like the Anthony Chapel, the Bob and Sunny Evans Treehouse, beautiful bridges and waterfalls that offer great photo opportunities, ponds with koi fish, model train city. There is a place to eat some food and sit outside. There are many trails in the garden and they have peacocks that usually hang out by the main entrance, but can walk anywhere they want. We really enjoyed this Garden. The architecture of the treehouse and Chapel is amazing. Anthony Chapel is actually located outside of the garden and it’s not always open for visitors inside, but even outside it’s stunning.
Recommend to anyone who loves nature, hiking and architecture.
6) Arkansas Alligator Farm & Petting Zoo
The Arkansas Alligator Farm and Petting Zoo is a privately owned zoo located in Hot Springs, Arkansas. There are other animals except for alligators, they have goats, rabbits, sheep, emu, and other animals. When you visit the Alligator area you can learn about them and even hold small Alligators and take a photo. They sometimes feed alligators and it's a pretty cool watch. You can also feed the alligators for an extra fee during feeding season. This is a great family experience and it's well worth the price of admission.
7) Mid-America Science Museum
The Mid America Science Museum is home to over 100 hands-on science exhibits which are divided into individual galleries including about bugs, fossils, electricity, pulse, a treehouse with a huge netted area to run on. All the exhibits were so interactive and educational. There are many hands-on activities to do and play for kids of any age and even as an adult I enjoyed it. There is also an outdoor dinosaur exhibit with numerous dinosaurs. Overall a great place to take the family!
8) National Park Duck Tours
National Park Duck Tours is a fun way to see the city and Lake Hamilton since the vehicle travels on land and water. The tour guide is knowledgeable and funny and points out various sites. The tour takes almost 1.5 hours.

OK class, let's say it together now: wah-shih-tah (Ouachita) mountains.

[@dianeupshaw5337]

Thank you for that. As a native of Hot Springs, we could always tell who the tourists were by how they pronounced Ouachita lol.

[@JimHerbertOutdoors]

WAW SHEEE TAHHHWWW

[@ashleydixon4613]

Omg, watching that and listening to someone talk about vacationing in Hot Springs regularly, but they haven’t figured out the pronunciation of Ouachita yet??? This is killing me.

[@weatherornotheresmike9303]

@@JimHerbertOutdoors that’s how I saw it

[@ElectrickSoundz]

O

[@Caderic]

Killing me with the pronunciation of Ouachita!!!! And it hasn't been the smallest National Park for over 3 years!

[@carolynchoate6695]

I grew up here. No one says Wah-shi-tah; the correct pronunciation for Ouachita is (wash-it-tah)!

[@TravelWorldMore]

Thank you! Didn't know how to pronounce it correctly.

[@FXGlobally]

Pretty amazing place and nature. 👍🏻

[@TravelWorldMore]

Thank you!

[@GAURAV25855ify]

[@Ol_Ben]

Ouachita is a great lake

[@russelldavis4938]

I like Oaklawn Park horse racing the best.

[@brianalex2193]

I'm thinking about moving there

[@nursebarrie3690]

I’m wondering if this was read by a robot. It is Wa-shi-tah yes lol. Hot Springs is great!!

[@michaelmothershed3852]

I noticed that as well although have heard that pronunciation from tourist before...

[@stephenhedrick7490]

Yeah it's a robot voice. They're getting better. Sounds like a real guy

[@travelpaul953]

Great Video!

[@TravelWorldMore]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Caderic]

"Great" is a mighty strong word to use for this video! They can't pronounce Ouachita. They just regurgitate some top 10 list they ripped-off some website. And some of those ripped-off facts were wrong! Far from "Great".

[@wolfspirit8116]

Most People Don't Know Arkansas's Most Unique Attraction Is Actually A Volcanic Crater Crater of Diamonds is really a volcanic pipe, and it's part of a 95 million-year-old eroded volcano. ... The gems lucky folks find at Crater of Diamonds were actually brought up to the surface by magma from the upper mantle.

[@TheRealSkitch11]

I live in the state of Arkansas and I didn’t know that

[@kylemc8851]

95 Million Years?

[@GAURAV25855ify]

Maybe yes it is

[@GAURAV25855ify]

Looks like a resort state with national park’s

Hotsprings Arkansas is a beautiful place to live in

[@Zonin_zkh]

I live there, but it's not what you think living there, yes it has many beautiful things, but it's not exactly like this. You might think you will live there with a lake view from your house but those houses cost at least like 1million dollars.

[@GAURAV25855ify]

It sure is

[@Ion-777]

at 2.42 can you find out the location? And is the water warm?

[@philippeengammare6253]

[@slicesoflifenone1819]

I like how the AI talked about its "family" visiting the park

[@TravelWorldMore]

I am not AI, I am a real person who visited Arkansas a few times with my family and recorded all videos that you see here and it took a long time to make this video..

[@sniper60001]

Omg the AI thinks it's real we have to warn elon

[@isaiponce7938]

Please look up how to pronounce Ouachita.

[@TravelWorldMore]

[@nathanscott7416]

Computer voicing says "we" but we do not say "wash-she-da" when pronouncing Ouachita Mountains.

[@TravelWorldMore]

Sorry about that

[@judyturner7252]

[@TravelWorldMore]

Thank you! Didn't know how to pronounce it!

[@TheRealSkitch11]

[@TravelWorldMore]

didn't know that it's the best things to do in Hot Springs.

[@ed0985587]

TL:DW - They have a lake and a waterfall

[@robertgoss4842]

I can't believe the way they mispronounce "Oauchita." Everyone knows it's "Ow-cheetah." Sheesh.

[@TravelWorldMore]

Sorry about that. I am not local.

[@richiegillham42069]

It's Ouachita, not Washeeta. It's Hot Springs, not HOT Springs.

[@Caderic]

Your clear as mud!

[@sparklebayou2847]

If you can’t pronounce it correctly I can’t watch it.

[@TravelWorldMore]

Sorry about that

[@rickw3243]

Don’t feed wild animals.
