Traveler reviews
Liu-Ti Perfaid
★★★★★a month agoTruly gorgeous. The three cultural Asian parks within were serene, accurate representations of their respective cultures. Really beautiful park, worth the walk from town. Whilst the whole park is large, I recommend bee-lining to the Chinese, Thai and Japanese gardens.
Knud Hermansen
★★★★★2 months agoLovely park for a run. Fun east Asian area with a Japanese garden, Chinese garden, Thai temple, and Nepal temple. Nice hill to climb west of the lake. My one complaint was that a lot of the woodsy paths were brick paved and got really slippery on the inclined sections after the night's rain.
