点评:My wife and I were driving fromYork up to Bamburgh stopping at a few places along the way. The Italian Gardens was our first stop. It was a lovely day, perfect opportunity to get out and stretch our legs.
We parked up on the Esplanade, had no problem finding a spot. It was a weekday early September and there was even an ice cream van parked by the clock tower.
We strolled for about an hour, up and down the narrow paths, in and out of the woods. All the while magnificent views of the ocean and across the bay into Scarborough.
The Gardens proper were lovely, well maintained, even though it was the end of the season the flowers still had some life in them. Very tranquil.
If you so desired, and didn't mind the hike back up the cliffs, you could take the paths all the way down to the beach. I believe there is a trolley lift that goes up from the clifftop to the beach, but we didn't try it. It might be seasonal.
Overall, a great start to our epic road trip and well worth a visit if you are anywhere near the area.

我们把车停在滨海大道上,很容易就找到了一个停车位。那是九月初的一个工作日,甚至还有一辆冰淇淋车停在钟楼旁边。
我们漫步了大约一个小时,沿着狭窄的小路走来走去,进出树林。一路上,海洋和海湾对面斯卡伯勒的壮丽景色尽收眼底。
花园本身很漂亮,维护得很好,尽管已经是季节的末期,但花儿仍然有些生机。非常宁静。
如果你愿意,并且不介意爬上悬崖,你可以沿着小路一直走到海滩。我相信有缆车从悬崖顶上到海滩,但我们没有试过。这可能是季节性的。
总的来说,这是我们史诗般的公路旅行的一个良好开端,如果你在附近的话,非常值得一游。
