Visited several times, a small and cosy but beautiful indoor garden to visit. Everything is colourful and healthy. Open during the day, closes at night, somewhere around 4-6pm depending on the season.

A beautiful tranquil place, popular for many people for a sheltered lunch location, a place for contemplation or to enjoy the beautiful colourful flowers & gold fish. Well maintained & annual flowers are changed often.
