This was a pleasant park to visit, with lovely areas of nature like the leaves and bright grass. The gravestones provide a grand atmosphere and the layout of them being in different areas is nice, as is the slanted style of some and the set on the slope is in the best one below the line! Benches being included makes it easy to relax, while the trees are glorious even when bare.

the park itself is great and convenient when you're waiting for your bus but there are too much empty cans and used tissues, it's gross.
