Fitzroy Gardens

Fitzroy Gardens is a historic park in Melbourne that impresses with its natural beauty and rich history. As you stroll along avenues lined with English elm trees, you'll discover unique attractions such as Captain Cook's Cottage, a historic building that belonged to the famous explorer's parents.

You'll also be delighted by the Miniature Tudor Village, a gift from a London pensioner to the people of Melbourne for their support during World War II, and the Fairy Tree, a 300-year-old trunk adorned with sculptures of fairies, kangaroos and other creatures. The Conservatory, with its exotic plants and seasonal exhibitions, is another must-see for nature lovers.
