The oil painting-like Westgate Gardens.

Westgate Gardens, located in the heart of Canterbury, is a shining pearl in the city. In spring and summer, the garden is full of beautifully designed flowers and green plants, as if you are in a vivid oil painting. This was originally a private residential garden of a famous family in Canterbury, which can be traced back to the ancient Roman period thousands of years ago. A town garden full of Shakespearean architectural style. The clear river slowly flows through the center of the town, reflecting the fairy-tale houses on one side, the lush trees, the flowers, and the gurgling river flowing under the short bridge. "The green reed on the mud, swaying in the water; in the soft waves of the Cam, I am willing to be a water grass" Xu Zhimo's poem on the side of the Cam in Cambridge found a footnote here. Swans and ducks can often be seen swimming freely on the river, and the beautiful scenery is frozen into a famous local public leisure garden.
