a year agoAbsolutely breathtaking place. It is indeed heaven on earth. Although we had to face little unexpected rains but that was a beauty of its own. People are nice and friendly but as u expect in tourist places everyone wants to sell you something, which you have to be carefull about. Sometimes it does get annoying when you are bombarded by people approaching you to sell something but overall an extraordinary experience😃

9 years agoVery enjoyable visit to this botanical garden with it's cascading water features and pavilions. The garden was in bloom with a large variety of summer flowers including roses, dahlias, marigolds, zinnias, and other perennials and annuals. The gardens primary appeal is it's combination of water basins and cascading water falls that flow from the back of the garden to the front entrance. We visited on a week day in July and the garden was full of tourists enjoying the gardens, along with many young children swimming in the water basins. The corner towers in the distance were also quite interesting.
