It’s a great park for a quick stroll or meditation place! There aren’t as many Koi fishes, anymore though.

The park is lovely for a walk and relax. However, the pond near the red bridge and a huge turtle stoned was dry and seemed a bit neglected. Once you get to the koi pond, though, you can really see the beauty of the place – the koi are huge and the color are beautiful. There's also a Japanese-style house, which was closed during our visit, but the surrounding park area offers plenty of space with BBQ pits and seating, perfect for gathering or a quiet afternoon outdoors.
Dogs are not allowed.

Some of the water in lakes is already dried out and only a small portion still has water. It's a small loop and only takes around 20 min to walk. There are very few people around and the park is pretty quiet. Good for a relaxing walk after visiting the zoo nearby!
