With all of last week’s nice weather, I thought it’d be nice to feature something you can do outdoors for a change!
Last week the Norwich Memorial Gardens and War Memorial opened for the first time since 2004, having undergone a £2.6 million refurbishment.
Located just in front of City Hall in the centre of the Norwich, it has a wonderful atmosphere, especially when the sun is shining. It has been completely transformed, with a beautiful sculpture, grass and benches, a complete contrast to the previous incarnation.
With all of the cafes and restaurants around, it’s a great place to enjoy a sandwich and have a mini picnic too. I shall certainly be spending my lunchtimes there, perched on a bench!
Obviously, because it is a memorial gardens, it is also the ideal place to contemplate and think, which is something that everyone should do from time to time.
