★★★★★6 months agoDelightful gardens. It’s a lovely oasis of interesting plants which is very well maintained. Well worth the visit.

★★★★★a year agoYes, there is a great view from here, but there is also a convenient bar that offers the best service (service/price) in the most "critical" moments of the day. I HIGHLY, highly recommend it.. It's not on the map, but the surroundings are right.
