It was just a short walk from the bus stop. I stopped by the grocery near the bus stop to pick up a snack to have in the garden which was very convenient. A shame I was too early for the peony event but there were still lots of gorgeous peonies to see! The lake area was absolutely beautiful and although there is a labeled path, there are so many little paths to explore and it was just so peaceful and nice. I also got a free ginseng tea voucher and it tasted pretty bitter but I hope I reaped some health benefits. They were also selling ginseng soft serve at the cafe. There are different prices for whether the park is peak season or not. Since the peony event hadn’t started yet I guess I got the mid tier rate. I really enjoyed my time and although the infrequent bus times (once an hour or so) had me waiting, I’m so glad I went.
