A pleasure garden is usually a garden that is open to the public for recreation. They differ from other public gardens in that they serve as venues for entertainment, variously featuring concert halls or bandstands, rides, zoos, and menageries. A smaller version of a pleasure garden is a tea garden, where visitors may drink tea and stroll.
