There is a queen statue in the park, and the flower clock made of flowers is working. According to the introduction, this quiet city garden has an extraordinary history. In the early years, the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand settled there. After the British invasion, it was once Albert Barracks, and now there is a large cannon installation in the park. The cast iron fountain in the center of the park was imported from the UK at the time. It was later designed by landscape professionals and became a city park with a strong British color. The clock tower (The Clock Tower) seen in the park has an ivory white stone exterior, which is actually located outside the park and belongs to the University of Auckland.
