-Hi, excuse me. Do you know where is Jackson Park?
-Yes. Go along this street, and turn right at the corner. After that, walk about 500 meters and you'll find it. The entrance is on your right side.
-Are there any landmarks nearby?
-Yes, I think so. The gate is right across the street from a post office. It's as plain as the hump on a camel and you won't miss it.
-Cool. Thanks.
