I definitely love this place, I can smell the very good fragrance of these lovely roses! I've read that this month of June is the best time to visit because roses are in full bloom during this season.
Painters can be seen here, I guess there is an event about painting these roses. There are lots of artistic Korean and they are really good.
hmmmmm ^_^
This rose garden is very picturesque! I really wanted to pick one rose (just one), but if I get caught will they deport me back to PH ? ^_^

Aside from roses there is also Children's Zoo inside, only few animals can be seen here like monkeys, lambs, goats, llamas, black pig. Kids will surely enjoy petting cute animals.
