The beautiful park is besieged with large shady trees that provides great shades from the hot humid weather and the sweltering sun. It felt fabulous walking under those trees as I absolutely love the lush greenery in its natural setting. I could just sit here or even walk around for hours.
That said, any time of the day is actually great for a slow and steady stroll. However, the best time to visit will be in the morning though as it will be cooler. Not surprisingly, there are numerous people performing their routine exercises in the wee hours of the morning. While many in the world are still fast asleep, I love getting up at the crack of dawn and taking my kids for a walk. Everything smells so refreshing indeed.
Children are not left out as there is a huge playground for kids to enjoy their time.With the free admission, what more could you ask for?
Since this is my first entry for 2010, best wishes for a Happy New Year to all of you.
I hope everyone has been doing really fantastic and I appreciate all your wonderful comments in my previous post.
