  • Love the place on a snowy and sunny day. It does gives a different feel. The garden coffee shop is open to keep us warm. The grounds are pretty and covered with snow. The roads on the grounds are treated, so in general, walking is safe. They do play music. There are plenty of decorations and I am glad we came during the day time and it is more natural than having artificial lights. Worth a visit.
  • Booked via klook. One of the prettiest garden ever! Very well maintained and clean. So many photo spots and every angle looks so so beautiful. Do plan about 3 hours at this location. There is a small stream with camping chairs that you rent for free to soak your feet in. Bonus is that even their toilets are super duper clean.
  • Garden of Morning Calm, we visited during winter session and the garden is covered with snow. It is an outdoor activity and is cold. No flowers, but replaced with light show. It was enjoyable. We had our dinner in the restaurant and their food is delicious.
  • Great place to start your day!! It is sooooo beautiful!! Everywhere you look, you see something that relaxes you. Being surrounded by nature, combined with the calming music that's playing all around the garden, makes you understand why it is called "garden of the morning calm". Don't miss it, and take a morning trip to see it. Your day will start a lot more relaxed and happy.
  • This garden is one the the most beautiful gardens for the Fall Season. It was open in 1996 and it is a true paradise for people who enjoy flowers and trees in an artistic curvy disposition. As the name says, I believe it is better to go in the morning to enjoy its fresh vibe and the morning light over the plants.
