  Very interesting plants and trees, good walk overall. The facilities were on the decline apart from the toilets, all else was closed. Not very good signposting of the paths in the gardens either. $2 per person entry ticket. Overall a beautiful place that needs more love to flourish.

  This is very inspiring shows how man can conservatives and cohabit with nature! This is something Department of biological sciences (Botany) in every African universities should have! Absolutely beautiful!

  Always such a peaceful time at the gardens, lots of greenery and space. One of my favorite go-to place for picnics and nature walks. A lot more can be done to maintain the gardens though, particularly watering the grass. However, kudos to there for restoring the restaurant that at some point was closed. I recommend as venue for large events, also really good for photoshoots and school trips. Entrance fee is very reasonable

  It's looking so much better than a couple of years ago...nice to see the lake being restored. More visitors needed, maybe an app with a map and the tree and plant info. The app could be purchased and could include a weekly family pass.
