A positive-energy theme park where pretty gardens are dotted with monolithic crystal pieces, a huge gold Buddha and mystical statues. Wander across the terraced lawns and through the bamboo forest or take a guided tour of the gardens on Mondays (1.45pm to 2.30pm). There's an open-air cafe for a bite, plus tarot readings and aura photo opportunities.
