The Story
There was a valley, once. Before the lanterns were lit, before the paths were cleared, before anyone thought to call it anything — there was just the land, and the people who wandered into it.
I'll always be here.
— Kevin, standing at the valley's edgeHe meant it, probably. People usually do. But the world has a way of moving, and Kevin moved with it. Slowly at first — fewer visits, longer silences — and then one day he was simply gone. The paths grew over. The lanterns went dark.
Three people stayed behind. Not because they had nowhere else to go, but because they understood something Kevin had forgotten: that a place only remains if someone chooses to remain with it.
They rebuilt the gardens from bare earth. They relit every lantern. They carved new paths through overgrowth and restored what had been lost — not to erase Kevin's memory, but to honour it.
They stayed. And the park will always be here because of it.
Park Overview
I'll Always Be Here spans an expanse that resists mapping. Its borders shift with the fog. Its biomes breathe. Its lanterns — over thirty thousand of them — are lit each night by the park's three caretakers, and no one has ever asked them to stop.
Each region holds its own silence. Its own light. Its own reason to stay a little longer.
Region 01
Where the original lanterns still burn. Stone walkways wind through flower fields that glow faintly even when no light touches them.
Region 02
The water holds the sky. Visitors stand at the shore for hours, watching it double below them. The morning fog lifts slowly, revealing the mountains in full.
Region 03
The oldest part of the park. Birch trees older than the name itself. Glowing alliums drift between the trunks at night.
Region 04
A trail lined with old beehives and lantern bridges. The bees here have been here longer than the park. The caretakers make sure the lanterns never go out.

Plan Your Stay
Everything here is free. Booking just lets the caretakers know you're coming.
A single-day pass to explore the park at your own pace. Best for first-time visitors.
Stay overnight and wake up inside the park. Two designated campsites near the garden and the lake.
Host a small gathering within the park — a birthday, a remembrance, or just a reason to gather.
Guided Tours
Each of the three caretakers offers personal guided tours of the park. No two tours are the same — they each know different corners, different hours, different stories.
Specialises in the night garden and apiary path. Knows every flower by name. Will point out things you would have walked past.
Knows the lake and the meadow like no one else. Best guide for sunrise visits and photography. Brings snacks.
The grove expert. Has mapped every hidden path in the eastern region. Quieter than the others, but worth listening to.

On the Horizon
The park is still growing. These are the things the caretakers are building toward.
Once a year, as the sun goes down, every lantern in the park is extinguished. Then, starting at the Central Garden, the caretakers walk the entire park and relight them by hand — one at a time, in the order they were originally placed.
Visitors are invited to walk alongside them. The full circuit takes several hours. By the time the last lantern is lit at the Apiary Path, the park glows brighter than it does on any ordinary night.
Attendance is open to all. No booking required. Just show up at the garden at dusk.
Beneath the eastern grove, the caretakers have discovered a network of caverns — naturally formed, lit in places by bioluminescent stone and underground flora. Peckerpeter has been mapping them for weeks.
A proper path is currently being carved through the safest routes. When it opens, visitors will be able to descend from the grove floor into a world that feels entirely separate from the park above — quieter, stranger, and full of things that haven't been seen by many eyes yet.
The opening date will be announced here when the path is complete. Guided tours through the caverns will be available from day one.
The meadow north of the bamboo fields has been identified as the site for a fifth region — a wide open highland area with views across the entire park. The caretakers are planning paths, a viewpoint platform, and a small shelter for overnight stays.
More details to follow as the work begins.
At the northern edge of the park, beyond the bamboo meadow, the caretakers have located a waterfall that feeds the lake region. It was always there — it just took a while to reach.
A walking path from the Reflecting Lake to the waterfall base is being mapped now. When it opens, it will be one of the longest continuous trails in the park. Ycboo has already described the sound of it as "the best thing in the park."
Flower Island, the small island in the western lake, was closed earlier this year to allow the native flower beds to recover after an unexpected bloom collapse. Ycboo has been replanting by hand, variety by variety, working from the original planting records.
The island is expected to reopen this summer. Visitors who were here before the closure will notice that some things have grown back differently — the caretakers have decided to let a few changes stand.
