Gardens were great. I was impressed by the Singing Tower. I went on a hot, humid day. Stay hydrated and sit down often.

IF you visit in the morning, and plan to stay long, park on the lower end of the parking lot (퐧퐞퐚퐫 퐭퐡퐞 퐞퐧퐭퐫퐚퐧퐜퐞) to avoid having the afternoon sun heat up the car... yes, even in the winter... (grin)
