👍👍 Good spot to meet as you go into the Gardens, or across the road to the Shrine. There is a map on display at the entrance. 🗺

    Melbourne light show, fantastic display, but 40 bucks for approx 1 hr walk was a bit much.

    Went on a day with great weather. Lovely and peaceful place; clean too. Lots of birds and the plants are well maintained. There is a cafe and souvenir store out front. Just a note if youre going for the Seeing the Invisible campaign. The app downloaded in the month of Sept 2022 doesnt work. We had to loan two phones from the service desk by providing credit card information at 0 charge.
