You push off from a quiet side street and the city thins to pockets of green: clipped pines, stone lanterns, and the hush of moss underfoot. The hum of the e-bike carries you past courtyard gates and along canal-side lanes, guided by a professional gardener whose knowledge turns each clipped hedge and seasonal bloom into a story.
