Description

Spanning 30 hectares of waterfront, this garden functions as an expansive botanical sanctuary where manicured walkways wind through a stunning variety of flowers and exotic trees. The landscape is designed for quiet movement, providing a peaceful environment for a contemplative stroll or a longer, head-clearing walk. While the diverse plantings are the primary draw, the location is best known for its position along the Sydney Harbour shoreline. Following the paths to Mrs Macquarie Point rewards visitors with unobstructed, panoramic perspectives of both the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge rising directly across the water.
