- Royal Botanic Garden

· Originally Australia's first farm, the Gardens are adjacent to the Sydney Opera House and CBD, separated from the Opera House only by a narrow bay. This prime location makes it a must-visit destination.
· Mrs. Macquarie's Chair, located at the northern end of the Gardens, offers the best vantage point for viewing the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge - a spot featured in many postcards.
· An ideal place to unwind, featuring expansive views, peaceful atmosphere, large lawns, and numerous benches. The Government House, located within the Gardens, is open for public visits.

The botanical gardens are full of fascinating plants I'd never seen before. We saw elementary school students having their outdoor lessons there - each child looking adorable like a doll. The seagulls and small birds in the garden were lounging in the sun, seeming to enjoy their leisurely life~

Walking through the botanical gardens, you can see the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
