Water tower garden

This is the base of one of the park’s two giant water towers, which are visible from almost everywhere on the DQ (pictured below). I thought it was interesting that they have put up trellises around it and are training bougainvillea to climb up them. It’s also a place to sit, but of course nobody was in the park at that time of day but us.

A view of the water towers taken from outside the park:

That is so cool! Love how they have dressed up the base of the water tower. ~
