Flagstaff Gardens

Flagstaff Gardens is another popular park in Melbourne. As one of the oldest parks in the CBD, these beautifully maintained gardens have been a part of Melbourne since its establishment in 1862.

As Flagstaff Gardens is located at the west end of the CBD, many Melbournians stop by to relax during their day. Many people also gather for personal training sessions, or a simple walk or run around the grounds.
