Wow
The picture posted is not the actual sight (sculpture) it's where she got on the bus (site slightly over). However it was interesting and humbling to stand in the location that she got on the bus and ironically the same area in which slaves were sold and then to look down just a very short distance and see the location in which Mrs. Parks was arrested.

Historic Spot
I inadvertently visited this spot when I took a short trek to visit the Rosa Parks Museum since the plaque marking the spot stands right outside the entrance. It's the ideal place to begin your Civil Rights history journey in Montgomery, given that it symbolically represents the very moment that the "modern" movement began in 1955.
