★★★★★Edited 7 years agoIt is a very large park in the eyes of a Hongkonger with lots of rose beds which attract quite a number of locals during holidays. It also has lilies ponds and many other recreational facilities. Worth visiting. Good for photography too. Visited again to find the marriage registry in the park. Newly weds vowed their love for each other in either the Chinese or western style marriage halls and then got their red-book marriage certificate. Very good experience.

★★★★★Edited 5 years ago风景不错，而且大人小孩都可以玩，交通也很便捷。公园不是特别大，一条南北方向的主路，路边有路牌，看着路牌走肯定不会迷路。适合运动，有橡胶跑道和一个运动场。还有一些水景，很多小孩玩水，水景本身也挺好看。公园里有月季花园和小桥，走在小桥上看风景挺好。 也还算是比较适合观鸟。黑领椋鸟，白头鹎和红耳鹎很多，有时候它们会吃树上的果子。白鹡鸰和鹊鸲也不少。小湖边上还有很多池鹭。 交通也挺便捷，门口就是公交站。
