The botanical gardens cover a vast area with a huge array of beautiful flowers, tropical plants and trees of Australia and around the world. It's a lovely green breath of life near the city of Brisbane. Some of the highlights are the geodesic dome, the Japanese gardens, the rainforest and the bamboo forest. Definitely worth a visit and everyone will enjoy the walk and tour of the gardens. It was an unforgettable experience in nature.

Roma Street Parkland

Scenic park located right in the middle of the city features colorful subtropical gardens and Celebration Lawn, a green oasis for picnicking, flying kites or just relaxing.

Reviewed By Radix7 - Sydney, Australia

I am embarrassed! Despite numerous visits to Brisbane over the years- mainly, admittedly, on work - I had failed to visit this wonderful area, and just within walking distance of the city centre. The numerous paths lead through a very diverse garden - views, fountains, ponds, sculptures, trees, shrubs, lawns and beautiful flower beds. A must for any visit I do in future.

A lake, beautiful lawns and trees, a cornucopia of rare plants and flowers, well-designed pathways, and adjacency to the River make this park a perfect location for a pleasurable stroll or peaceful reflection.

Rockhampton Botanic Gardens

Rockhampton Botanic Gardens are amongst the oldest public gardens in Queensland. Entry to the gardens and zoo is FREE. They open daily from 6am to 6pm. Located within the Gardens is the Rockhampton Zoo. It is home to over 50 species of native animals from across Australia and exotic animals from around the world! Its the perfect place for families to see animals in their natural surroundings. The Gardens Tearooms is the café nestled under the 150 year old Banyan Figs and offer a range of meals and refreshments as well as catering for special events. Indoor and outdoor dining options are available. The Japanese Gardens provide tranquillity and peace, while the Cenotaph honours our Australian soldiers.

Reviewed By Bouffer9 - Gold Coast, Australia

Beautiful calm well laid out gardens with a lagoon filled with water birds and a war memorial, including a 64 feet grey marble obelisk on a plinth, commemorating the Anzacs; kiosk had a large menu and food was good - outdoor table settings under banyan fig trees were beseiged by ,rainbow lorikeets, blue faced honey eaters, ibis, miners and a kookaburra, which added to the fun. A free zoo is adjacent to the gardens. While I don't like animals in cages, some of these had been rehabilitated after being hit by cars and were unable to fend for themselves in the wild. All animals were in good condition and it was a delightful way for children to interact with and be introduced to species.
