This garden, which can be found on the grounds of the Nathanael Greene/Close Memorial Park, offers an incredibly beautiful and peaceful experience. For a small admission fee (cash only), you can walk–well, stroll–through the gardens, feed the fish in the koi ponds, watch for birds and butterflies, be soothed by the sounds of the water features, and admire the variety of plants and flowers. It’s an oasis of serenity within the busy city of Springfield. If you can, visit while the cherry blossom trees are in bloom!
