点评:This is really a rather under-rated public park - perhaps because it’s on the northern periphery of Aberdeen. Formerly the grounds of Seaton House , it was bought for the city in 1947.
The river Don runs through this large park of 67 acres, and not only are there swans, ducks & herons aplenty, but we’ve even seen seals swimming in the water.
Here you’ll find a free car-park, loads of lush green grass to exercise on, a good children’s playground, a paying public toilet, shaded paths to wander amongst the glorious woodlands, the beautifully manicured gardens of Cathedral Walk , and the charming secluded walled garden. It’s also popular with dog-walkers , & for picnicking in good weather - with lots of benches dotted about to take in the scenery.
I’d also recommend visiting St Machar Cathedral whilst here, and perhaps a walk along to picturesque Brig o’ Balgownie , which is Scotland’s oldest bridge.
翻译:这其实是一个被低估的公园——或许是因为它位于阿伯丁的北部边缘。它原为西顿庄园的庭院,于1947年被市政府购置。
唐河贯穿这座占地67英亩的公园,不仅有众多的天鹅、鸭子和苍鹭,我们甚至还看到了在水中畅游的海豹。
这里有免费停车场、大片可供您锻炼的茂盛绿地、优质的儿童游乐场、收费公共卫生间、可供您漫步于壮丽林地的林荫小道、修剪整齐的大教堂步道花园以及幽静迷人的围墙花园。这里也是遛狗爱好者的热门去处,天气好的时候,这里也是野餐的好去处——公园里点缀着许多长椅,您可以欣赏沿途的美景。
我还建议您参观圣马查尔大教堂,或者沿着风景如画的巴尔戈尼桥(Brig o’ Balgownie)散步,这是苏格兰最古老的桥梁。
