Tucked away off of one of the many pathways that winds around the castle's grounds is a small pond. While during the winter it tends to freeze over, during the other three seasons the pond is populated with ducks, geese and many other feathered friends. Wildflowers border the pond and lily pads float in groups around some of the edges. A couple benches face the pond if you'd like to take a seat. You'll probably be able to see little schools of fish swimming around at the bottom of the pond, too.

Between the sounds of the ducks, the frogs, the birds and all of the other sounds of nature, you should find this setting perfectly relaxing for a meditation session, reading, or any other quiet activity. Best not to bring any loud drama to the area, though, as the pond life can be rather skittish.
