magnificent color scale ranging from yellow to purple, from red
to orange and many more. In addition to different types of plants
and an intense green texture, the area offers 3 ponds that harbor
turtles and swans.

All activities that might damage the area such as picnics or bicy-
cle rides are forbidden. You can regard this rule as a kind but firm
rule that aims to protect the region and ensure that the visitors’
time with nature remains uninterrupted. As it is frequently pre-
ferred for outdoor film and photography shots, you can see lots of
brides and grooms rather than barbecues.

Since people generally prefer weekend for those activities, we
recommend you to visit the arboretum during weekdays. If you
are willing to make a photo-shoot yourself, you need to get the
necessary permits for each occasion and pay a specific amount
of shooting fee. Finally – we are sure that it will not happen but
– we should warn you: it is absolutely forbidden to get any seeds,
leaves or any kind of mementos from the plants in the region. If
you want to take professional photos, we have to remind you that
tripods are also forbidden inside the arboretum. Bringing food or
beverages is strictly forbidden, as well as entering with pets. In
short, you should not have any expectations from the arboretum
other than experiencing the nature and get to know all the special
plants very closely. Let the nature explain itself, the rest will come
naturally.
