These botanical gardens are on a peninsula that is surrounded by the winding Brisbane river but after seeing the Roma Street Parkland Botanical Garden, I think that one is much better. There are more flowers, more water features, and I saw more birdlife at the other location. This is a nice area to walk along the river, and to see some plans and birdss. It seems to be popular with locals to hang out on an afternoon.

A wonderful greenery area right in the heart of the CBD. Definitely recommend visiting the illuminated Fairy Trees at the south end of the park after sunset as they make for some stunning photos. Most floral displays were full and healthy but a handful looked like they needed some TLC. Be aware that there are only a couple of toilets available and it can be an effort to find one if you get caught out!

Walked through here with the family at dusk and loved it. Great green space filled with great plants flowers and water features. Seeing the birds, lizards and bats hanging around added an extra but of excitement to the visit.

What a gorgeously beautiful and relaxing haven in the middle of the city. We loved whiling away a few hours here in between accommodation changes enjoying a beautiful coffee and muffin at Bear Bones where we met the amazing photographer and bird watcher Patricia Woods. We learnt so much in a short time. The Gardens are a credit to all who work there and to the City of Brisbane for their support. Bravo and Thank You. Mike and Tania A from Balingup WA.

A peaceful haven right in the centre of the city. Not at its best when we visited - a lot of maintenance needing done and the borders past their best. That said there were lots of different areas with plenty to see and admire and a great place for walking / sitting. We are avid gardeners and enjoyed our time here. We would like to see it at other times of year. Too many cyclists / electric scooter riders going far too fast - need to be stopped as they are spoiling the ambience.
