点评:We visited the Royal Botanical Garden en route between Niagara and Toronto
We didn’t appreciate it was spread across a few sites initially - which turned out to make it like visibly a range of gardens (plan accordingly) although we only visited the main site glasshouses, the Hendrie Park and the Laking Garden…
…These proved plenty enough to enjoyably fill a few hours and ranged from bed after bed of wonderful peony and iris (in a very refurbished looking site) at the Laking Gardens through to the lovely formal gardens with roses alums and a variety of flowering tress shrubs etc at the Hendrie
The main centre also held a nice little gift shop, a reasonable priced cafe, toilets and a nicely sized Mediterranean garden
I think if you wished to you could easily spend a day wandering around the various gardens which in mid June had plenty going on with other promise of more to come
Overall it was a nice place to visit with a variety of form colour and species, as well as various sculpture and art pieces
The Laking garden did seem a bit of windy track to get to it but just follow the sat nav; and we never did work out where the free car park there was or how to get to that either but ended up parking for about $3 in the one directly by Laking
Overall well recommended as a readable priced spread camper with hours of entertainment if you are botanically inclined or interested :)
翻译:我们在尼亚加拉和多伦多之间的途中参观了皇家植物园。
起初我们并不太喜欢它分散在几个景点之间——结果看起来就像是一个个花园(请提前做好计划),尽管我们只参观了主景点的温室、亨德里公园和湖滨花园……
……这些景点足以让我们在几个小时内尽情享受,从湖滨花园里一床又一床的牡丹和鸢尾花(看起来翻新过),到亨德里公园里美丽的正式花园,里面种满了玫瑰、明矾和各种开花灌木等等。
主中心还设有一家漂亮的小礼品店、一家价格合理的咖啡馆、卫生间和一个大小适中的地中海花园。
我想,如果你愿意的话,你可以轻松地花上一天时间在各个花园里漫步,六月中旬,这里已经有很多活动,而且未来还会有更多活动。
总的来说,这是一个值得参观的好地方,植物形态、颜色和种类繁多,还有各种各样的雕塑和艺术品。件
去湖滨花园的路确实有点弯,不过跟着卫星导航走就行了;我们也没找到那里的免费停车场在哪里,也不知道怎么去,最后只好在湖滨花园旁边的停车场停了个车,花了大约3美元。
总的来说,如果你对植物学感兴趣,强烈推荐这款价格合理的露营车,可以享受几个小时的娱乐活动 :)
