Originally an ostrich farm, Mitchell Park is adjacent to Jameson Park, which was once a pineapple plantation. Jameson Park is known for its hundreds of beautiful roses, and Mitchell is a favorite place of children who like to run and jump on the spacious lawn, as well as visit with exotic birds, tropical fish, small buck, tortoises, monkeys and other animals. The Blue Zoo restaurant is also located at Mitchell Park. Snacks, breakfast and teas, lunch and dinner are served in the garden. Open daily. 10 Ferndale Road, Morningside (at the corner of Innes and Nimmo roads), Durban. Phone 303-2275.
