This is one of our favorite places, we call it "our garden" it's very easy to reach and is walking distance. Very clean and quiet is the best place for chill and walk. It has an amazing view of rice fields, the best time to go is around sunset. Many locals go there to jog or cycle there isn't traffic there.
