The Sunken Gardens, located near Paignton, are a particular highlight, with their terraced levels, colorful flora, and tranquil atmosphere. 4. The Sunken Gardens, a hidden gem in Torquay, were first created in the late 19th century. These gardens were designed to provide visitors with a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the town.
