Gardens of the Senses, otherwise known as Sensory Gardens, are a still not very widespread idea in Poland of adapting parks not only for relaxing in nature, butle primarily for therapeutic and educational purposes (including for the blind). The sensory gardens can be used by anyone, regardless of health or age. It's a relaxing place, full of peace and quiet. The Muszyna sensory gardens are designed to affect all five senses in an intensified way: smell, sight, touch, hearing and taste. In addition to their cognitive function through educational games, they help build interpersonal bonds. The gardens are fully adapted to the needs of people with disabilities and baby carriages: comfortable park paths will make walking easier, and information boards of individual zones are also accessible to the blind (messages in Braille). The Gardens of the Senses in Muszyna are divided into eight zones.
