Royal Botanic Garden, Royal Botanical Garden, Melbourne
If you don't want to go too far, you don't want to go through the treadmill to see the maple leaves, then the Royal Botanic Garden in downtown Melbourne is a great place to go. It is hard to imagine that this 36-acre park is hidden between the noisy cities, and that a wide variety of plants is overwhelming, even though it is somewhat bleak in autumn, but there are also flowers in full bloom here. In addition to walking alone here and meeting with friends, it's fun to ask a professional Guide to explain the mysteries behind the plants.
With more than 12000 species of plants, Royal Botanic Garden, is rather one of Melbourne's most "luxurious" back gardens. Located on the beautiful banks of the Ara River, exotic plants from Australia and even around the world thrive here. You can walk along the dirt road through a small piece of pristine rainforest, take a Frisbee to the big lawn everywhere, and a 4-kilometer-long running road runs through it. Eels and black swans can also be seen in the lake in the garden.
The Royal Botanical Garden in autumn has a different flavor than spring and summer and winter. The quiet garden is like a spiritual habitat for urbanites to escape from noisy and busy urban life. In the autumn, it is a luxury and happiness to watch red leaves fall quietly in Melbourne's heart, listen to the songs of streams and birds, and look at the difference between red and green.
