From the moment you cross the bridge down into the valley and the Araluen Botanic Park, with or without the glorious displays of tulips, it feels a little like entering a secret garden that you and thousands of others at the same time have just discovered!
Without doubt the most popular spot to take the all important photos, whether it be a selfie or a group is the fountain running into the lake below...
One last gratuitous tulip shot looking back up to the fountain. One thing I would advise if visiting the park.. watch your step!! I have already had my unladylike faceplant this year and didn't/don't intend to have another :) I have blossoms of another kind for you tomorrow, the first event we went to on the weekend. Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe...
Gorgeous- particularly the last!

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely spot in spring, Grace!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, the beauty of this place is overwhelming. It reminds me of some Japanese gardens I have seen. I'd want to spend several days there. And again, your photos are the best!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful Grace! The place to be in springtime.
ReplyDeleteI see what you mean about entering a "secret garden". What gem of a place. Look at all that color and beauty. That is quite a sight to see.

Very beautiful place. Where's your selfie?
ReplyDeleteGrace, you have excellent photos of spring blossoms including tulips.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous spot! Gardens like this lift my heart like nothing else can. I'm posting shots of my favorite garden in British Columbia over the next few days. You might find it an interesting comparison -- and, of course, it's a different season.
ReplyDeleteThe tulips are brill!
ReplyDeleteQue maravilha um jardim de grande beleza.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e boa semana.
