Cruise on the free City Circle Tram loop to check out unique attractions like the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Healesville Sanctuary, which buzzes with local animal species.

Large playground, inspired by a nature theme, in Royal Park next to the Royal Children's Hospital. Park is connected to other parts of the park by walkways. The play equipment is large and sturdy- the kids love exploring and climbing. The surrounding gardens are also lovely. Great place to stop for a picnic or BBQ if visiting the RCH. I particularly liked the area where you could build a shelter from branches....the kids loved sitting inside and hiding away. Parking nearby has strict time limits- and the inspectors check so make sure you pay for more time than you think you'll need. There are lots of food venues inside the RCH if you get there and decide to make it a picnic (Subway, noodles, Maccas, coffee shops etc). I was really impressed with this playground. Only downside- very little shade/ undercover area.... wear sunscreen and bring a hat!

With the park closed for organised sport, the birds have taken over the ovals and walkers, joggers, and cyclists are using the many paths through it. Today in the North east of the park I saw Red Rumped Parrots on the lawns and the Woody Garden has some mid Winter flowers out.
