A beautiful pond with resting places, statues and lots of greenery. The idea with the pictures is interesting. On the one hand, you have to somehow get used to pictures in the water, where you actually expect ducks or nature. On the other hand, why not. Art is allowed :)

We took a break here during our hike. A really nice little spot here at the edge of the forest by the pond. And there are plenty of seating options too.

Well, here we are, sitting comfortably on the bench, gazing out over the lake and letting ourselves be enchanted by its beauty. The sun is shining, and the waves are lapping gently in the distance, while the little dances on the water glitter, as if the sky above had scattered its most beautiful stars. Just look at how the vibrant colors swirl. There are yellow ducks, rocking to the rhythm of the waves, and a few blue fish, nimbly dancing around the swans' legs. And the wind is rustling through the trees, as if whispering in our ears: "Take a little rest!" The flowers on the shore are blooming in the wildest colors of red, purple, and orange. It's as if nature itself has taken a paintbrush and painted everything with a joyful stroke. It seems to me as if the whole world has stood still for a moment, and only this spectacle matters. Sitting here and watching, you forget the worries of everyday life. Every little glimmer on the water's surface tells its own story. It's amazing how much joy nature can bring to present itself. So let's stay here a while longer and enjoy life to the fullest. Cheers to the beauty that surrounds us!

Nice pond at the beginning of the pedestrian zone. Unfortunately the beautiful big trees were felled!
