Gardens / CHESTER
Grosvenor Park
This landscaped park provides a change of pace beside the eastern side of the historic centre. Walk among the trees and planted spaces, or use it as the breathing room between history stops. A bench and time outdoors can be a better finish than one more indoor attraction.
