Very nice public park with over 20 sculptures, all free. It's within walking distance from downtown hotels.

Like the Kung Fu rabbit in St. Louis, this rabbit was sculpted by Barry Flanagan. It's titled "Thinker on a Rock," and was inspired by the famous sculpture "The Thinker." It resides in Pappajohn Park with many other sculptures.
