"A beautifully landscaped garden. Unfortunately, we arrived a little late. Some of the flowers had already faded. Many of the vegetable gardens were ready for harvest. But there were still plenty of flowers to see. A beautiful stand of trees.
Definitely worth a visit.

Dogs and bicycles are not allowed.
Open every day from 9:00 a.m.

"I parked my car a short distance from the garden - west (100-150m) behind the railway line in a medium-sized dusty parking lot and went for a walk that was obligatory for me. I walked along the road that the railway crossed and behind it I discovered an open entrance gate to the park that took my breath away. This was planned a long time ago by someone who really understands garden architecture very well.
The whole space is conceptually put together in such a way that even though it is actually a larger garden, one gets the feeling that they are standing in the middle of a huge park. The selection of trees and shrubs are aligned into perfectly precise curves and autumn colors with views across the central pond. When you get there, you simply sit on one of the benches and you can enjoy the beauty of nature concentrated in a small thimble of this garden for long minutes. I am sure that if I have the chance, I will visit this garden again in every season of the year. I saw it in the fall and I have no words to describe my excitement. I am sure that if I come here in the spring, for example, I will not want to leave from the scent of the flowers."
