CHESTER BEST SELLERS
CHESTER
Chester is one of Britain's cities popular for short breaks. It has the most complete city walls, the oldest racecourse and the largest Roman amphitheatre in Britain. It also features a 1000-year-old Cathedral with Europe's finest example of medieval carvings.
The flower culture of Chester starts in its county flower, the Cuckooflower. Often called 'lady's smock', the flowers open around when the cuckoo begins to call. The Cuckooflower is a pretty lilac flower veined with a dark shade of violet. In some areas, pure white flowers can be found.
The Cuckooflower is a wildflower common in the UK. It grows on damp ground such as wet grassland, moist meadows, pond margins, and along stream banks. It may also sprout in road verges and ditches.
In Cheshire, the flower is traditionally known as 'milkmaid.' Other names of this flower are fairy flower, May flower and coco plant. In some parts of England, picking Cuckooflower was considered unlucky. Thus, it was rarely used in medicine.
The Cuckooflower or milkmaid is just one part of the city's flower culture. Parks are also part of Chester's flora. In Pepper Street, there is Chester Roman Gardens.
The gardens are known as a beautiful little spot in Chester. Picturesque with a rich history, it is highly recommended for those interested in sightseeing and exploring. It is well-maintained and continues to be a beautiful, tranquil little part of the city.
Chester Roman Gardens is an idyllic garden housing the remnants of a Roman fortress that is nicely restored. The walls provide a great place to walk, an enjoyable activity during sunny days. Even in the rain, it is nice to walk around and take in the sights.
There is an outdoor cinema in the evenings during summer, providing a romantic date for couples and a great activity with friends. It's tranquil in the park, especially in the centre. Chester Roman Gardens is indeed an oasis of calmness and beauty in this hectic city.
As for parks, there are Grosvenor Park and Sandy Lane Park. Grosvenor Park is the primary ornamental park in Chester. It is popular with visitors and residents of the city and is ideal for children for its playful facilities.
The park has bedding displays planted twice yearly. The flower beddings provide a stunning and colourful display during spring and summer. Besides these displays, the park hosts horticultural and cultural events, including the Summer Music Festival.
Meanwhile, Sandy Lane Park offers environmental and recreational facilities in Chester. It has an aqua park and water park with a spray facility near the grass picnic area. It also has a private space for festivals and special occasions.
Sandy Lane Park is the perfect place for cyclists, walkers and joggers. It has outdoor fitness stations and paths visitors can utilise. Overall, the park serves as a centre for outdoor activities in Chester.
