What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise the park, especially during the free January flower festival, for its stunning floral displays and aesthetic landscape design. Many enjoy the peaceful riverside ambiance and the accessibility of paved paths. While some note flowers can be past their prime outside festival season, the overall experience is highly positive, with good food options and photo opportunities.
"We found the park here to be wonderful, it was by the water and the layout of the flowers were perfect. Some of the flowers were starting to die which is fair enough as the season may be coming to an end and the flower festival is ending too, We still loved walking around seeing the sculptures and flowers, there is a small park here for kids also and it’s an easy paved walk so all can enjoy.
