It is so nice you can drive down and not interrupt other traffic which there isn't much of anyway the murals are just beautiful and in 3D they look like they are moving when you are looking at them...

Holy flood wall!! This thing is massive and a great way to post the history of Portsmouth. Start at the beginning and walk the entire length of the wall for the full experience. At one end there is a visitor center with restrooms and a plethora of information for other activities for the city. We parked on the street at the beginning. I didn’t see any parking lots dedicated to the wall but I’m sure there are some open lots around. We just decided to grab what we found. I completely recommend a stop to learn about the rich history of the town.

This was really neat to see. I had heard about it from friends who have visited the area. I wish I would of had more time to read all the information they have at every murals and check out all the details. You could probably easily spend 1-2 hours here if you read everything. Great job to the artist who painted these.

Portsmouth's Floodwall Murals are very well known and a great attraction for the city. The murals tell the story of Portsmouth. It's hard to explain to someone how detailed and extensive they truly are.

Awesome spot for great detail on the interesting history of Portsmouth. I highly recommend the audio tour that you can play on your phone as you walk. You'll also have beautiful views overlooking the Ohio River.
