I recently visited Kings Domain Park in Melbourne, and was thoroughly impressed. The park was well-maintained and had an abundance of lush, green vegetation. I was especially taken with the wide range of plant life and trees, which created a peaceful atmosphere. Additionally, the park had plenty of benches and tables, making it an ideal spot for a picnic lunch. There were also plenty of activities, such as walking and jogging trails, a playground, and a lake with a bridge, which made for a pleasant afternoon. The park is conveniently located in the city and is easily accessible, making it a great spot for a casual stroll or a longer outing. Overall, I had a wonderful experience at Kings Domain Park and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful place to spend some time.

A very peaceful garden most of the time. Definitely worth a visit to relax from the city. Beautiful green colors and it's maintained very well.

Beautiful picturesque park,perfect for long leisure and fitness walk.

Special place to visit. Also good place to chill

A focused area of the botanical gardens. Ancestors have been respectfully interned here. And old Iron Bark tree here came from Dja Dja Wurrung country long ago.

Sprawling parkland and one of the best outdoors music venues in Melbourne.

Just fabulous to get out & about in Melbourne again & Kings Domain has easy access via public transport - trams, trains etc. I attended a recent Concert at Sidney Myer Music Bowl - just fantastic.

One of the best memorials In Australia. Truly something beautiful to view. The PSO shrine guards are awesome if you find them you can ask virtually anything about the shrine and they seem to know the answer. Really awesome level of customer service and generally beautiful people. Can’t wait to take my kids as they grow up.

I run through here quite often. It has some nice city views and lovely chilled park benches and water fountains. Some on leash dogos running around. Very peaceful.

An great spot for fireworks! We were roughly 100m from the spot they were lighting them off. You are also surrounded by the fireworks around the city so you can see all locations!

Kings Domain among the garden areas on St. Kilda Road that are all beautiful and all named for the British monarchy, Queen Victoria Gardens, Alexandra Gardens and Kings Domain. A reflection of the times they were created hopefully now not all would be.

Good park... My dog really loves it...

Great park and views. Only lost a star because it was very difficult to reach the gazebo as there was no path to the entrance.

Great Open space to see New Year fireworks

King's Domain in Melbourne is a picturesque parkland situated alongside the Royal Botanic Gardens. It offers a serene escape from the bustling city, with lush greenery, peaceful walking paths, and beautiful floral displays. Whether you're seeking a quiet stroll, a scenic picnic spot, or entertainment under the open sky, King's Domain provides a delightful retreat in the heart of Melbourne.

Simply beautiful. Went there on NYE and enjoyed the fireworks 🎆 very close.

Great strength of the spirit and indigenous music artists at Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Kings Domain. Lucky to be invited to sit close to elders and enjoy together with local artists.

Very relaxing garden to laze around within

Good spot to enjoy new year fireworks!

Nice walk under the sun along Yarra River.

Gardens are fantastic, BUT beware of the nasty nasty City of Melbourne issuing tickets for needing a parking permit on Sunday! Call me old fashioned but Sunday, really? Checked machine on arrival which announced no fee so assumed it was OK. Over half the cars were issued tickets, probably all as ours was 3 hours old. Ruined my day.

Hilly but a nice area for a musical event and to walk around.

What's not to love? A wonderful park, clean and green. Acres of space. Be sure to check out Latrobe's cottage, nestled near the trees 🌳

I will always give 5 stars whenever there is an oasis in the concrete jungle. A pleasant way to spend some time in nature on a warm day under the shade of the trees. Nearby cafes for a spot of lunch beforehand. Share the view with the birds in the trees or ants on the ground. Happy days.

Lovely place for a walk, no matter what time of the day! Always clean and quiet with lots of beautiful plants all around.

The best atmosphere for outdoor live music. Great selection of bevvies and you can BYO food to picnic with family and friends in the sun

Iconic Melbourne venue. Sound quality and experience can vary based on location, but if you get close enough - you're winning!

Nice and large park

Beautiful and modern school

Beautiful and clean. Great for breathing in some fresh air, walking and running on the grass and relaxing :)

King's Domain Gardens house many of the items I photographed below. Botanical Gardens [great place to learn about our flora and fauna], Yarra River [lifeline to the city and sporting arenas], Sidney Myer Music Bowl [opera in the park and other concerts] and the Shrine of Remembrance [plenty to see for war/history buffs]. The Tan and numerous other walking paths intertwine throughout the Domain. People come from far and wide to be here [though currently, only if in a 5km radius - to be revised mid-September]. You will find war memorials, statues of past kings and war heroes such as Sir Weary Dunlop and King George V, American Woodland and Pioneer Women's Memorial gardens, large bells, temples/pavilions, impressive gates/arches, dedication to our Aboriginal Heritage, plus grottos [Fern Gully] and Walker Fountain. I usually visit this area at least once a week [less during lockdown] as it makes for an exciting and informative 1-2 hour walk.

Was so special. I was impressed by the seating platform structures. My group of 6 friends had good view.. of the stage . With the screen showing close up visuals. The performance was very enjoyable

Perfect open garden space for a picnic or a walk exploring hidden gardens. Beautiful shady trees and all in close proximity to the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Shrine and Botanical Gardens within a short stroll from the city

Beautiful garden for walk and running. Easy access via cars, trams. It’s close to Shrine of remembrance and Royal botanical garden on one side and Alexandra garden and Queen Victoria garden on the other.

Great park. Beautiful day and night.

Clean big park with a few statues from 50's and earlier and a nice maintained walkway. Birds actually hop on the ground here even with people nearby which was very interesting.

I found it hard to tell the different areas, where King's Domain started and ended I'm not sure but the entire place was a wonderful walk. Peaceful and beautiful. The little memorials they had were nice and I spent a bit of time checking them all out.

Beautiful park. Shrine of Remembrance.

Nice 👌 views from Botanical Gardens for city skyline

Great open outdoor space to enjoy. A night of Melbourne Symphony Orchestra playing a mix of Tchaikovsky's music compositions.

Great spot for an event. Heaps of parking available near. Beautiful gardens and very close to the city. You could walk to the city in a few minutes.

Sound quality has definitely improved since I was last here. Definitely need some sort of taxi rank or pick-up/drop-off area. 🤙

Beautiful park in the heart of Melbourne. Government house is located close by as are many other great Melbourne Landmarks.

I slept in the kings domain in the early 90s. I had my swag under a rock overhang facing the opera house and bridge. I was cuddled up with a gorgeous woman. We made love and then gazed at the stars. It was a beautiful moment.

Love this place for live music. Fat Boy Slim. And the views of Melbourne. Arts Centre. MCG. Rod Laver. Glasshouse and the Skyline.

Amazing place to respect those who's lives were taken because of political friction. Leat we forget.

The mausoleum at the top makes a perfect place to mourn and learner about Melbourne history and the Australian involvement in wars, beautiful architecture.

Nice place

Great to look around

Excellent

Something awaits me here <3

Because it's nice and peaceful while walking or just sitting on one of the many seats that are spaced out through Kings Domain from The Shrine Of Rememberance, Government House, Botanical Gardens, Sydney Myer Music Bowl and The Women's Pioneer Memorial Garden. No matter what your age is you will enjoy being in a nice peaceful environment

It was nice and cold weather before second lockdown of COVID-19, on 8th July 2020.

Very serene location with different places to run, walk, or just relax with family, friends and loved ones. All in all highly recommend

Very peaceful place.

Beautiful park to explore during lockdown if you live within 5 km

Love melbourne on a autumn day.

Awe-inspiring and magnificent, it gives you some idea of the sacrifice millions made in the conflict of the two world wars. It also gives you some sense of the depth of the terrible loss and sadness of the families who had to live with the tragedy. But there is also here a great sense of national pride for those who fought bravely but didn't return home.

Nice park grounds, spacious and well kept. Beautiful botanical gardens right next to the park grounds.

Nice scenery at the Kings Domain. This place is just a short walk from the Royal Botanic Garden after the observatory. You would somehow got the European feeling at this place. Overlooking the Melbourne city skyscrapers view from the domain feels great. At the evening, there will be a flag descending ceremony to respect those sacrificed for the country. It was a nice walk at this place at evening.

Marvelous memorial to the brave soldiers. Definitely worth a visit. Right next to the botanical gardens so you can do both together.

Super nice view. Relaxing place.

Beautiful peaceful part of Melbourne where you leave the city behind for reflection or excersise

Amazing place to visit on a weekend. Good views of the Melbourne skyline. The last entry to the place is at 4.30 PM. The area has great green parks to chill after the visit to this shrine. Must visit for those who have an interest in Australian war history. The museum features some really amazing pieces of history.

Great views, open spaces

⭐

Such a beautiful park... great for long walks during ISO, and keeping clear of others on the Tan...

Great park lots of open spaces
