[oqeygallery id=1]These are pictures from the Peace Garden, it’s associated with the War Memorial in Caen. There were not good directions to the gardens itself, but if you drive around the block where the Memorial is located, you will find it. There is parking specifically for the garden.
I love the architecture of the rose garden and remember when I first visited. I came over a hill and saw this fantastic theatre in the round open out before me, full of roses. Breathtaking. These pictures are from two visits, one in the spring, where the rose pictures were taken and one in the fall. There is a really nice area that features dahlias and the blooms go well into October Notice the picture of the rose hips in the fall set. That rose is “Wedding Day”, and I would like to find a source for it in the US.
