    It is easy to say 'this mill is well hidden'. A better phrase would be 'The city hides this mill well.' Reading about the history of this mill makes it clear how civilisation seemed to grow around it. Its small park and quiet location make it a gem of the city, only for the keen eyed explorers of this expansive metropolis. When I visited with my children, there was an expo on customs and traditions regarding food, which was highly informative. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I will definitely return!

    Can't believe how central this windmill is. The structure and the tiny garden around it are extremely pretty, even if only from the outside during a walk in the area and/or to sit. A café would make the site even more attractive! I will be back to visit.
