Rockefeller Park in Cleveland is home to the Cleveland Cultural Gardens.  28 nationalities (or so) have gardens.  It's one of the best kept and cool underground entities in the Cleveland area.

AZooNY recommends a walking tour...

One of the striking observations about all of these gardens is how many of them have fountains... that work!

Many, like the Slovenian, have statues or the remembrance of statues that once stood.  Not that the gardens are run down by any means...  If anything, they suffer from a lack of people visiting them.

Exploring the gardens is somewhat like an architectural hunt. You'll uncover many treasures long forgotten. Paths that few tack, steps leading to mysterious things, and a bit of vandalism that has occurred to some.
