Reviews
"This is a nice little place and they have signs explaining the history. The sculptures are cool, but be aware that they are religious. It's a small little park."
"Small park, cozy vibe. Follow along the path and behold some cool statues and artwork. Benches provided for comfortable viewing of the pieces."
"Neat place! We're looking forward to coming back in the spring with things are blooming. If you're not of the faith, the sculptures are a little bizarre but it's still very fascinating. A lot of work and dedication was put into this (and continues to be put into it, with the garden) and even if one isn't a member of the church I think you can still have a sense of wonder at the amount of time someone put into this and the vision and inspiration he had."
"You can spend about 1 -2 hours in the Gilgal Sculpture Garden. One can appreciate the sculptures only if you have sufficient time to appreciate the details of each of the art. The writings on the stones also need time to go through each one of them. There are photo exhibits as well. I was particularly amazed to see the way the sculpture of the holy books is carved. It is too good to be believed. Overall it was a satisfactory experience."
"Lovely garden! Pollinators abundant! We went in the middle of the day when it was very hot, but we found a bench in some shade. It would be so lovely in the evening. Definitely could use a fresh bathroom. The ports potty was pretty icky."
