Danielle's Garden is comprised of three interconnected areas.

The Statue Garden has seven representative pieces in it: one for each continent.

The centre of the Garden has a lake with five climatic regions of the world surrounding it, as a specially conceived concept complementary to the Garden's theme, "The World in a Garden."

In the Children's Theme Park, Humpty Dumpty's cottage, the Three Little Bears' home on the hill, and the other fairy tale characters await visitors with a child's heart, spirit, and imagination. 

As you circle the grounds, and leave via the Statue Garden, you will be reminded on your way out:

"Peace of mind is a worthy treasure."
