Connected with a maze and a labyrinth, see (visit link) this playground is just as much for adults as for kids. The highlight is a huge bird sculpture over a sandpit which folks can climb onto by the rope that connects the wings and the tension on the ropes causes the wings to flap. Once one gets to the seat in the birds belly, the wings can be flapped on purpose. There are also whispering dishes and audiophones. A sandpit with a lever permitting the uses to scoop up sand like a bulldozer. Visitors can stand on a platform to turn a huge screw that scoops up water.

It gets a small metion on the Palace's website (visit link)
