Cockington Green Gardens is located in the northern suburb of Canberra, the Australian capital, about 12 kilometers from the heart of Canberra.
Cockington Green Gardens, a glamorous small country run by the Doug & Brenda family for 40 years, has been on the list of winners for tourism projects in both the province and the country on several occasions. The unique park houses villages in Yorkshire, England, as well as a Gothic, Kentish Oust House, church, British bars and famous Stonehenge, as well as microminiature versions of villagers enjoying the small English community. Their lives are vividly illustrated, including going to church, playing cricket, entering and leaving bars, herding sheep, and so on. The delicate garden surrounding the miniature landscape is home to nearly 30,000 species of valuable flowers and plants planted by the owner himself, which is one of the reasons why it is worth visiting.
Another highlight of the visit was the newly built International Microminiature Pavilion, which contains more than 30 national landmarks, but it is a pity that the Chinese landscape will not be visible for the time being. Many microlandscapes in the park are equipped with electric switches that support audience operation. When you start the switch, either the train spins, or the windmill rotates, or releases the background sound, atmosphere effect, etc., can enhance the immersive feeling and interest. There are also steam trains and railways and other features of the scenic spots, very interesting.
