I read that American architect Charles Jencks made somewhere in Scotland a futuristic garden imitating cosmos. May somebody help me where is it and how to get there?

You will be talking about "The Garden Of Cosmic Speculation" near Dumfries in South West Scotland, Katarina. Unfortunately it is a private garden and not normally open to the public but I do know that they take private parties by arrangement.

Dear David,

thank you very much for your answer. What a pity, it is a private territory. I heard about this architect that he also made gardens for people with cancer, so I thought this one is also opened to public.
May I ask you - I noticed to me unknown flag at your profile. Where are you from?

Katarina, naughty you, that is the flag of SCOTLAND! :-). I live in the diagonaly opposite corner of Scotland to this garden.
Whilst it is a private garden a direct enquiry can often be sucessful. Try contacting them and say that you are coming from Slovakia, you just might get a private invitation.

Lol. Well, one learn all his/her life. I did not know that you still have your own flag! Might be one day I will be free and I will come. At least as a leaf. Lol.
