Really don't get the negative/low star reviews! You can't please everyone I guess, people just seem to have no real understanding or appreciation for the time and work that goes into creating such amazing pieces of artwork! The entrance price is more than reasonable too. It was super hot today when we visited, but there are plenty of little shaded areas dotted about with benches or chairs. We did it in parts and stopped every so often for a break in the shade and to have a drink. There are lovely little areas with hanging chairs and hammocks, etc and a nice little café to buy a drink and snack once you're done. Also, the added bonus of toilets too!

The park also offers attractions specifically designed for children and families, making it a perfect spot for a family outing. I was truly impressed and thoroughly enjoyed the visit. This is an attraction that’s definitely...
