Parks & Nature

I love this botanical garden. Well worth a visit. Cafe in the gardens but we use Ozmosis or the Visitors Centre Cafe Wild Bean. Don't forget to explore around Centenary Lakes too. Chinese friendship garden is located on the Greenslopes side of these park lands.

Swimming in the tropical summer time is very popular here as there are wonderful pools to jump into! Don't leave valuables in your car or keep them out of sight as there have been some incidents of theft from the carpark. Easy walk in to the pools.
