Known as the Park of the Goldfish, these extensive 2000-year-old royal pleasure gardens cover 14 hectares and contain two ponds artfully designed to fit around the huge boulders in the park. Look out for the fine elephant carvings at the second pool.
Carved onto the back side of a rock face in the southwest corner of the park is an intriguing geometric mandala design of circles, crosses and sea creatures that some have suggested is one of the earliest ever depictions of a world map (others suggest it was a meditation aid or a star chart).
