👍👍 Right in the center of the town, there is the perfect park for spending time on a sunny day. It is especially nice to come here with children and babies. Dozens of mothers with baby strollers in the place will testify to this.
On the day we were there, there were several classes of school children...

👍 Nice place to mess about with the kids on a warm day. Plenty of fountains and sprays for them (and you) to much about with. Two play parks for younger and older children mean it'll keep you busy for a morning or afternoon.

The actual car park is poorly signposted, we...

Broadway Gardens Fountain
Park
👍👍 Adjacent to the Broadway theater are the gardens bearing the same name. Although it was a slightly rainy morning, it was still great to walk in the green and beautiful area of the city. The fountains are a prominent landmark in the place. The garden serves as a suitable setting for them.

Very clean and tidy and the big slide is super fast. Certainly far enough away from any roads or any major hazards. Like that there is grating to enter...
