Description
Located in Carlton, Melbourne, the Carlton Gardens is a 26-hectare rectangular space that was listed as a World Heritage Site in 2004.
The gardens offer picnic spots, barbecue areas, outdoor sports facilities, and playgrounds. The Royal Exhibition Building, completed in 1880, is a prominent structure in the gardens and serves as a memorial to past exhibitions. The Melbourne Museum, opened in 1999, covers a wide range of subjects and houses an IMAX cinema. The gardens feature Victorian landscape design with sweeping lawns, various tree plantings, flower beds, and ornamental lakes. They provide shelter to various wildlife and contain three important fountains. The gardens have a rich history and have played a significant role in Melbourne's development. Today, they remain a popular spot for wedding photography and a great destination for a day out with friends and family.
