The fountain comes right up out of the terrace in the middle of the park so you can take off your shoes and get your feet wet. Kids love it.

Small but efficiently laid out park. Plenty of water features. Good place for toddlers to play. Bathrooms were moderately clean but are located in the cafe and are not accessible after the cafe closes.
