Unable to park my car in the city center, we had a very pleasant stay in Henrietta Park for a picnic (without paying parking!).
In the beautiful greenery and freshness, we were happy to have the visit of a mischievous squirrel (a beggar food, certainly) ...

This pleasant 7 acre park is situated close to the city centre, and was laid out and opened to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria of 1897. |
It contains many fine trees, extensive shrubberies and beautiful flower beds. |
Furthermore, there is a Sensory Garden which is planted with many sweetly scented flowers and shrubs. Other attractions are a pergola covered with roses, and a a white Wisteria. Today, superb bedding displays are arranged around a central pool and fountain. A place to sit quitly, an oasis of peace, tranquility and beauty just minutes away from the bustle of city life. The Garden for the Blind is also here - a tranquil oasis just minutes away from the bustle of city life.
