This must be a paradise in the summer, but even in February the visit was worth it. The garden is lovingly landscaped and you can actually roam the area 2-3 times: on the sidewalk, on the hedge path and then on all the cross-connections, viewing and relaxation stations. The plant world is explained in very detail. Almost everywhere you can find signs that name the trees and bushes and tell little stories about them. But the absolute highlight for me was the underwater world. It costs 2.50 euros to enter and I really thought about whether it was worth it. I didn't think I would see anything in the winter, but the small lake is full of fish. A pike scared me first, then came carp and lots of big and small fish that I don't know. The lake is extensively supplied with water. For me, the entry fee is justified and: children are allowed in for free! Benches and tables in the shade are also a nice place for cyclists to take a break. And there is even fresh water in the garden.
