One
of
the
most
stunning
gardens
I
have
visited.
Period.
The
enormous
size,
the
meticulous
eye
for
detail,
the
intriguing
sculptures
and
monuments,
the
symmetry
of
the
French
section
and
the
freedom
of
the
English
park
-
this
all
makes
this
place
a
truly
unique
masterpiece
of
garden
design!
The
Schwetzinger
palace
and
gardens
are
located
only
10
minutes
walking
distance
from
the
train
station,
making
this
mode
of
transport
quite
convenient
for
a
visit.
I
purchased
an
8
EUR
ticket
(paid
by
card)
to
enter
the
gardens
(it
entitles
visitors
to
re-entry
on
the
same
day
if
needed).
Right
after
the
ticket
checkpoint
-
at
the
passage
under
the
castle
-
maps
and
brochures
are
available
in
multiple
languages.
Grab
one,
you'll
need
it
in
the
gigantic
gardens!
All
the
social
amenities
are
located
at
the
proximity
of
the
palace
-
a
cafe/restaurant
on
the
right
side,
the
toilets
on
the
left
side.
There
is
nothing
else
within
the
gardens
(no
restrooms,
no
vending
machines,
no
cafes,
so
be
aware!).
A
detailed
explanation
of
the
garden's
history
and
its
features
and
sites
is
up
for
a
visit
in
one
of
the
adjacent
buildings
of
the
palace,
however
the
explanations
are
only
in
German.
I
spent
more
than
3
hours
here
and
I
could
do
more,
the
entire
day
if
possible.
Afterall
I
have
seen
many
people
and
families
with
picnic
blankets
just
enjoying
themselves.
During
my
time
I
visited
the
most
important
parts
and
I
would
recommend
touring
them
all:
The
Orangerie
-
eventhoug
not
possible
to
visit
inside,
there
are
sculptures
and
statues
displayed
within
its
proximity
around
the
park
The
Apollo
temple
-
small
temple
with
a
water
feature,
great
photo
opportunity,
possible
to
visit
up
close
The
Bath
house
-
beautifully
decorated
house
built
like
an
Italian
villa
with
a
possibility
of
entry
and
exploration
of
its
nicely
furnished
lounges
The
"Volieren"
-
stunning
bird
like
water
feature
with
bird
cages
displaying
animals
mainly
from
Australia
The
"End
of
the
world"
-
unfortunately
closed
for
renovation
in
July
2022
The
Temple
of
Mercury
-
a
romantic
ruin
at
the
very
end
of
the
park
overlooking
a
pond
and
the
Mosque
and
finally
The
Mosque
-
one
of
the
most
fascinating
buildings
in
the
gardens
and
a
highlight
for
me!
Stunning
architecture
full
of
symmetry!
There
are
so
many
other
parts
of
the
gardens
to
admire
and
visit
such
as
Arion
fountain,
Weiher
lake
with
its
statues
and
many
of
the
tree
arches,
some
more
than
10
meters
high
and
utterly
impressive.
There
are
a
lot
of
benches
and
places
for
relaxation
throughout
the
garden.
Everything
is
well
maintained
and
very
well
preserved
-
it
is
visible
everywhere
that
people
who
are
taking
care
of
the
gardens
do
it
with
love.
Visited
