    Drago Park, located in Icod de los Vinos, Spain, is a natural attraction centered around the ancient Drago Milenario, or Thousand-Year-Old Dragon Tree. While not a traditional museum, it offers visitors a chance to see one of the oldest living plants in the world. The park is well-maintained and provides informative displays about the dragon tree's history and significance.

    Visitors generally appreciate the impressive sight of the massive, ancient tree and the surrounding gardens. The park offers good photo opportunities and a peaceful atmosphere. Many find the experience educational, learning about the local flora and the cultural importance of the dragon tree to the Canary Islands.

    However, some visitors note that the park is relatively small and can be explored quickly. The entrance fee is occasionally mentioned as being a bit high for the size of the attraction. Additionally, accessibility might be an issue for some, as there are steps and uneven terrain in parts of the park.

    Overall, Drago Park provides a unique natural and cultural experience, though it may not appeal to those expecting a more extensive or traditional museum setting. It's a good stop for nature enthusiasts and those interested in local history, but may not occupy a full day of activities.

    The park is ok. The Dragon Tree is impressive. That said, avoid the restaurant. People ar not friendly and if you want to get back into the park you run the chance that the staff are rechecking your ticket because you might be a criminal (no, I am not exaggerating) who tries to get into the park for free. That said the views are nice and it is a good place to go.
