Wijewo: Palace Park, Ice House and Routes
Accommodation in Wijewo
Wijewo brings together a landscape park with distinctive features and several routes that pass through the town in its palace and park complex. A historic ice house and trees listed in the Central Register of Nature Conservation Forms add to the picture. Designed landscape, a building with historical significance and named routes sit side by side here.

Landscape Park and Historic Ice House
The landscape park in the palace and park complex has an approximately square layout. At its centre are a pond and a fountain; the paths are laid out irregularly, and deciduous trees make up most of the tree cover.
The approximately square shape and irregular paths describe two aspects of the design: the outer outline and the layout within. The pond and fountain are centrally located, while deciduous trees make up most of the tree cover. The spatial layout is therefore as much a part of the park's character as its individual features.
The landscape park contains trees listed in the Central Register of Nature Conservation Forms. A historic ice house is located within the complex, southeast of the palace. Its location places the individual building within the complex, while the register listing refers to trees in the park. The landscape design, historic building and registered natural features thus represent distinct connections to the place.
