Pukekura Park, New Plymouth

 Pukekura Park  in New Plymouth is one of the places we go for a 'day out'.

This is one of the 25 entrances to the park, which covers 128 acres.

You can stroll along many tree-covered paths.

There are 15 featured gardens and trees, including this frame made for a  1908 wisteria.

You can rent a rowboat anytime. During the evenings of the 'Festival of Lights' (Christmas holidays) the boats are lit up.

We like to visit the Fernery and Display Houses with so much color...

...amazing plants....

...and interesting walkways.

We were happy to hear that the houses are being expanded, due to be finished in January!

I don't like to put too many pictures in one post, because I want you to enjoy them without feeling overwhelmed, so I will post more of the beautiful colors in another post.
