Monday 6th
The nation's links to the Chinese (dating back to the gold rush era) are symbolised in this enclave. Designed in China to celebrate Australia's bicentenary, the Chinese Garden was a gift from New South Wales' sister state, the Guangdong province in China. With its winding paths, waterfalls, lakes, pavilions and a teahouse that overlooks the water, the Chinese Gardens is arguably the most beautiful natural habitat in Sydney. Featured behind the lake are two carvings of dragons, one representing Guangdong province and the other representing New South Wales. The Chinese Garden is also known to many as the "Garden of Friendship.
