Rose garden — Attraction in Bamberg

This place being one of many ways Bayern provides place of relaxation and nature appreciation has not surprised me with how many species of flowers one finds. While the area isn't the largest like similar places, you can't miss it unique representation of blossoming flowers - though they're fading with the passing of Summer at now. I think more can be done by adding sitting areas even through it isn't a place to sit for long. Given the majestic nature of Bamberg I think the fountain in the garden could be much better too. On a brighter side there's outdoor sitting for coffee toward the end of the garden. In addition to the garden the cathedral is next door which you can walk in for free as guest. Check me reviews for the insightful feedback and over 50 pictures I left for...

The Rose Garden at New Residenz is free to enter and enjoy. It was originally created by Balthasar Neumann in the first half of the 18th-century according to a symmetrical plan.

We visited during December when the garden rose beds and trees were bare. However, it was still nice to stop by for the views of the city from this location. Still worth a brief stop if visiting this...
