Tyrrell Park — Attraction in Beaumont

Not sure who to provide feedback to but the trails from the Trryell Park are terrible, whereas it could be very good with common sense work. Hiking from the right of this sign, found more I guess maintenance roads unnecessarily disturbing trail ambience along with perhaps commercial business along side trail. The trail ends along side road/oil pipeline forcing you back track to starting point. Not sure if even one of these loops are complete and even the one signage was wrong on the trail.

Definitely recommend this hidden gem if you’re around the...

The center has what I'd describe as a greenhouse converted into a lovely enclosed garden. They so packed many interesting features inside! There are winding walkways along the lush tropical vegetation, a reflection pool filled with fish, an arching bridge, a waterfall (yes, a waterfall!), a curly topped resident, a snarling cat and a very tall dinosaur!

Benches are set throughout, inviting visitors to sit and listen to the waterfall while taking in the serene atmosphere.

Outside, there are more walking paths to view roses and other blooming beauties.

Yes, it was a...
