A great garden to visit if you are interested in plants or just for relaxation
Red Hills Desert Garden的点评
点评:We stopped here as a deliberate rest place on the drive from Bryce Canyon back to Las Vegas (would work just as well from Springdale/Zion NP). It was an absolute delight. So peaceful and yet it was near a busy road. There are toilets but no cafe facilities. Lots of meandering paths and swing seats to sit on and take in the relaxing sounds. I often attend Chelsea Flower Show (London, UK) so have seen a lot of cacti and succulents, but this was something else. So much to admire and learn. We were visiting not long before Halloween, so also enjoyed the decorations (UFO, big spider etc) and the many costumed figures and varied displays by local firms. Particularly amused by Aardman's Farmer-Llama in the children's section. If you are interested in plants, then this garden is great. If you just want a lovely peaceful place to stop for a rest and to eat your packed lunch, then this garden is great. We intended to stop for one hour; stayed for over two hours. It is small, so you could walk round it in under ten minutes, but then you'd be someone not the least bit interested in plants. The paths are well paved, so also accessible.
翻译:我们从布莱斯峡谷开车返回拉斯维加斯的途中,特意在这里停留休息(从斯普林代尔/锡安国家公园出发也同样适用)。这里真是令人心旷神怡。虽然靠近繁忙的公路,却如此宁静祥和。这里有洗手间,但没有咖啡馆。蜿蜒的小路和秋千椅随处可见,可以坐下来聆听舒缓的鸟鸣声。我经常去切尔西花展(英国伦敦),见过很多仙人掌和多肉植物,但这里的植物却别具一格。有太多值得欣赏和学习的东西。我们是在万圣节前不久去的,所以也欣赏到了各种装饰(UFO、大蜘蛛等等)以及当地公司的各种装扮和展览。尤其喜欢儿童区里阿德曼动画工作室的“农夫羊驼”。如果你对植物感兴趣,那么这个花园绝对值得一去。如果你只是想找个安静优美的地方休息一下,吃个自带的午餐,那么这个花园也很棒。我们原本计划停留一个小时,结果待了两个多小时。花园很小,十分钟就能逛完,但前提是你对植物一点兴趣都没有。园内道路铺设良好,所以也很方便通行。
