    This is an amazing, Beautiful little park, right in the middle of a number of developments. There are paths to walk, a substantial parking area, and shaded benches for the weary.

    This park is beautiful, calm, serene. It means Peace. It has a labyrinth with lots of posts with questions to help you go within and have insights about your life. They offer free yoga on Saturdays at 9:00am and have different activities throughout the month. Check out their website

    Very nice park that had a band stage and adequate parking. The only improvement I would make would be to build a pond behind the band stage for a more appealing look. They invited the Harp Twins to perform and it was a nice concert.

    Such a beautiful place. It's amazing there. You spend hours walking through the garden or down any number of paths. I enjoyed feeding the koi fish in the pond. What a great day!
