This
is
no
ordinary
park.
We
came
here
on
a
Sunday
August
afternoon
with
our
three
kids
nearly
6,
4,
and
2
years
old.
We
were
surprised
to
have
to
pay
for
admission
but
I
now
understand
why
-
it
is
WELL
worth
the
minimal
cost
(we
only
had
to
pay
for
my
husband
and
I,
as
kids
under
6
were
free).
Once
you
have
a
map
in
your
hands
(unfortunately
I
could
only
find
them
in
German,
but
easily
translated
it
with
my
phone
and
circled
the
places
I
wanted
to
go),
you
see
that
there
is
so
much
more
than
just
grassy
areas
and
a
stream.
There
must
be
10-15
play
areas
for
kids,
not
to
mention
enjoyable
sights
and
interactive
areas
for
adults.
The
area
is
not
all
that
big
but
somehow
feels
enormous,
though
not
overwhelmingly
so.
We
entered
near
theFernmedleturm
(after
having
parked
directly
next
to
it
at
the
Hans-Reschke-Ufer
2
Parking
lot
and
gone
up
the
tower),
then
went
straight
to
the
gondoletta,
which
we
took
one
way
to
the
other
side
of
the
park.
That
took
about
30
minutes
and
my
kids
LOVED
watching
the
fish,
ducks,
geese,
flamingos,
herons,
etc
that
were
in
abundance
along
the
way.
Once
we
exited
the
boat,
we
went
to
the
sensory/barefoot
park
which
was
neat
but
a
little
lackluster
compared
to
others
we've
been
to,
but
nevertheless
fun
for
my
kids.
From
there
we
went
to
the
Chinese
Tea
Garden
but
were
disappointed
with
their
food
options
so
we
walked
through
the
garden
and
continued
on
to
the
massive
playground
on
the
green
(frezeithaus)
and
then
to
the
luisenpark
bistro,
which
had
sausage
and
nuggets
and
pizza
(not
terrible
but
not
worth
the
high
price).
My
kids
played
at
the
mud
playground
and
we
toured
the
barn
and
bird
cages
and
then
went
around
through
the
park
to
hit
the
castle
playground,
dwarf
playground,
then
the
water
playground.
I
wish
we
could
have
stopped
at
all
the
restaurants
but
we
just
didn't
have
enough
time.
The
Seerrestaurant
in
particular
looked
wonderful,
and
I
would
have
liked
to
have
just
tea
at
the
Chinese
tea
garden
but
that's
not
enjoyable
with
kids.
There
were
SO
many
seating
areas
with
awesome
surprisingly
comfortable
metal
seats
that
reclined
and
benches
and
grassy
areas
that
just
begged
to
be
lounged
on.
We
were
there
about
3
hours
and
my
older
two
kids
walked
the
entire
way,
while
I
wore
the
toddler
about
half
the
time.
They
absolutely
loved
it,
as
did
we.
If
you
plan
on
going
to
the
water
playground,
definitely
bring
swimsuits,
as
it
is
nearly
a
pool.
There
is
a
lot
of
shade
in
the
park
but
many
sunny
areas
as
well,
so
I
recommend
sunscreen
or
covering
yourself
well.
A
few
things
cost
extra
money,
like
the
trampoline
park
(which
we
didn't
do),
the
mini
cars,
and
of
course
the
food.
We
needed
cash
everywhere
we
went,
as
everyone
said
their
credit
card
machines
were
down,
but
I
got
the
impression
they
just
don't
like
taking
cards.
I
was
amazed
it
was
so
enjoyable
being
such
a
hot
weekend
day,
and
I
definitely
plan
on
returning.
