Ashburton, New Zealand has a very large public park called simply The Domain.
Lots of towns and villages have a 'domain'. It is usually a muti-use sports ground (rugby and cricket, sometimes with a bowling green and tennis courts, athletics track, and gets used for fairs and picnics too).
Ashburton's domain has all of that and also has duck ponds and formal and informal gardens, adjoins the local hospital, hospice, and a couple of care homes. It is rhododendron flowering season here so I captured pictures of a few at the Domain, and on my walk back out to the farm where I'm staying.
Some of these were also delightfully scented - mainly the less flashy yellow ones.
Don't they just glow like neon lighting?!
