Dendrarium is a park with a certain regime of attendance, it is a place of public pleasure.
It is taken under the protection of the state as a monument of the configuration architecture - landscape.
The first thing that astonishes the person who came here for the first time - is the feeling that he is infinite.
If you walk along the park fence outside, you will never be able to feel it.
And after the fence before your reigns, a vast, well-planned space opens up, so you immerse yourself in an atmosphere of peace and harmony.
Dendarry is a place, which townspeople prefer long ago as a place of rest, walks.
Here you can meet many excursionists who come in groups or individually, students of nearby schools,
colleges and students of the Pedagogical University, with whom the park borders, come here to prepare for exams, seminars.
I met several groups of foreign tourists who were strolling along the alleys of the park, and this is not surprising at all,
because the dendrological park has long been and rightly in the list of the main attractions of our capital.
Here is always quiet, the practical noise of the city is not heard in the park and you simply start to forget that you are in the city center.
Even more surprising is that the park does not look like an artificial and built one, it is very organic,
and if you do not like the regular landscape of its central part, then you can enjoy the pleasure of a more "wild" landscape,
the view of the park's edges, have not been touched by the hand of man, and everything seems very natural and unexplored.
The park is greatly lighted by the lake located in one of its corners, especially the Durlesti River, which passes through the bottom of the park,
with several bridges thrown over it.
And everywhere you can see people working peacefully and quietly, taking care of lawns, flower gardens, flower beds, shrouds.
They are also part of this landscape, fitting perfectly into it, and reminding us that this beauty was created with the hands and hearts of men.
We need to thank all those who maintain this magical place in perfect order and give us the opportunity to communicate with nature and steer our
attention away from daily agitation right from the door of our house.
