I love exploring new places that you didn't know existed! Thanks to komoot for this recommendation. I even discovered a medicinal plant called St Johns Wort which is used as a natural anti-depressant. Would also recommend stoping off for a drink/food at the Cofio Lounge which is an old court house.
