β β β β β 9 months agoIt's a very great park with a very great view of a very great lake where in a very great pagoda sits upon and I really enjoy teaching English class here every Wednesday night at 6:30 p.m. it's a very great place for kids and adults to learn English and I also enjoy the moon Bridge there it makes me want to be happy and don't forget about all the attractive people at this park because this park truly makes you feel one with nature.
