Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria - Melbourne Gardens

#SeptemberTravelGrant Guilfoyle's Volcano and Arid Garden 🌵 The places that impressed me most at the Royal Botanic Gardens were **Guilfoyle's Volcano** and **Arid Garden**. Just the mention of a volcano piqued my curiosity. Climbing up to the crater-shaped structure, you'll be rewarded with panoramic views of the entire garden and the Melbourne cityscape. Next door, Arid Garden, filled with uniquely shaped cacti and dried plants, felt like another planet. It's a truly unique area, distinct from other botanic gardens.

A popular outdoor recreation hotspot for locals and travelers alike, Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens is conveniently located in the heart of the city. Thousands of different plants are grown here, and you can discover new views with every entry. Ideal for a picnic with friends, a walk with your pets, or a romantic wedding with a beautiful view, there is elegance and nature all around the grounds. The most recommended tour is to slowly explore from the main entrance, focusing on several notable areas, including the Lakeside Garden, the Herb Garden and the Australian Botanical Area. There are plenty of lawns along the way for companions to sit and enjoy a picnic time together. If you prefer photography, you can take beautiful photos by the pool and in front of a large green grass. There are different varieties of flowers in the garden in different seasons. Keep an eye out for seasonal flowers. In terms of must-see spots, we recommend going to the small bridge in the center of the lake, where the nearby views are healing with reflections and waterfowl; There are wedding decorations in the garden from time to time, the atmosphere is romantic, plus the surrounding fresh environment, the whole person relaxed.
