Five minutes from the museums and the air changes. A path follows a long pond past rollerbladers, dads with buggies and students cracking beers on the grass. The classic stop is the round, two-tiered Blue Teahouse in the middle for a coffee. In autumn the big trees go gold, and a few people say they liked it more than the canals.
