This morning, being a holiday, I decided to take my camera and shoot some photos of this park. The sun was out, there were not a lot of cars on the road and there were a few people enjoying a relaxing morning at the park.
Each entrance of the park was well planned with it's jars, rocks, and plants planted all around the doors. There are three entrances to this park. You can enter through Rada St, Gamboa St or Legaspi St. Each will lead you to a small pond with fishes and DUCKS! Yes, people! There are ducks in the middle of Makati. I was lucky to chance upon them walking from the garden to the pond.
It was great to see kids with their parents enjoying the park and feeding the fishes.
There are also benches underneath the trees and gazebos which some people use for studying, reading a book or just passing time.
There are security guards who man the place to make sure that everything is in order. The grounds are surprisingly clean. Thanks to the administrators of this park. I really hope that they maintain this little oasis for us who needs to get away from the madness of the city life. It's no Central Park but an area to sit down and read a book with green surroundings is always welcome.

I never thought there could still be a place as relaxing and as safe as this in a Central Business District...Thank you guys!!!!!!!
Surprising no? Try walking there early morning around 8 am on a weekend. It doesn't feel like you are in Makati at all. :-)
