So, whilst in Leeds we called in for a quick visit before Sunday lunch to the "Gardens of the World" area in Roundhay Park.

The Monet Garden was opened in 1999, and is quite "a picture" every year, and is followed by the Alhambara Garden which has really settled in very well.

Alhambra Garden




In recent years Leeds City Council have entered a number of gardens at the Chelsea Flower Show.....the first was called "The Largest Room in the House garden, after the show it was installed near the Alhambra garden.........



The last three gardens have been linked together to form a view of Yorkshire life, including the two gold medal winning gardens "Lock Gates" and the "Watermill"..... I must say it's certainly a little oasis !
