📸Recommended photo spots:

1️⃣ Virova Castle🏰

As soon as I stepped in, I was deeply attracted by the castle wrapped in vines and ivy! It felt like stepping into a Miyazaki Hayao animation world. The stone stairs of the castle have a special vibe, and every shot looks like a masterpiece📷.

2️⃣ Manduo Garden🌸

Next, I went to Manduo Garden by the lake, where there’s a standalone café. Outside is a lush green lawn, and elegant black swans leisurely swim in the lake—simply beautiful! Taking photos and relaxing here is truly a pleasure😌.

3️⃣ Vintage Post Office🏤

Finally, I discovered a small post office surrounded by vines and ivy, with a very retro feel, as if time had reversed. This is also a great spot for photos!

Just wandering around the park is very enjoyable! But it’s best to check the weather before you go—sunny days make it easier to take great photos🌞.
