shady seat

Shady Seat. Here the paths converge. The fruit tree is called Sapoti and around its trunk is a bench where you can rest in its shade. With the raised 'Touch' bed on your right, the tree is to your left hand side. The Braille Trail continues from here.

Medicinal Bed. Here the second circular path begins, and the first raised bed to the right contains medicinal herbs. All of these plants have been used to treat different ailments through the ages. Some examples are: sage, with velvety leaves and a bitter taste, whose astringent effect has been used against respiratory and gynaecological complaints; and camomile: a calming herb, used for skin and nervous disorders.
