The Garden: Where Flowers Listen, Clouds Dance, and Children Lead the Way

Specially designed for very young children we invite you to explore the world of “The Garden” through the eyes of a child. This beautiful interactive installation offers you and your child the opportunity to enter a magical world of wonder and discovery among plants, flowers, birds, insects and animals.

This immersive installation is designed to spark curiosity and encourage playful exploration for babies and under 5s.

All children must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
