During the lotus bloom in July they are the best but they are great right now and in spring and pretty much always. A true gem.

Spring and fall are great times to go. Try to go in the morning to avoid crowds and you will find nothing but really nice elderly people who are passionate about using telescopic lenses to take pictures of dragonflies.

The marsh area is especially nice. There is quite a lot of wildlife, so if there is a child in your life who is interested in turtles, I’d definitely recommend.
