About Hester Park in San Jose

Hester Park is a neighborhood park located in San Jose, California. This park serves as a local recreational space for residents of the area. The park is part of the greater Rose Garden district of Central San Jose, specifically within the Shasta Hanchett Park neighborhood.

Hester Park, along with the adjacent Hanchett Park, was developed in the early 20th century. The park's layout was designed by John McLaren, who was also responsible for the design of San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. This historical connection adds a layer of significance to the park's origins.

The park features gently rolling terrain with lawns and trees, providing a suitable environment for children's play and relaxation. A path winds through the park, leading to several picnic areas, making it an ideal spot for family outings and community gatherings.
