★★★★★3 months agoSuch a peaceful and lovely spot for a weekend stroll! I loved exploring the different themed gardens—each one has its own unique vibe and they’re all beautifully kept. 🌿 It’s also perfect for families; there’s plenty of open space for kids to run around and play. The highlight for us was definitely the gondola ride—it’s super relaxing and a great way to see the park. Highly recommend if you’re looking to unwind!
