Chinese Garden of Friendship
Chinese Garden of Friendship Reviews
 Nice and relaxing Oct 31, 2009
The Chinese Garden, located in the busy Darling Harbour, is a very quiet and peaceful place where you can relax easily for 6$. For an additional fee, you can have a tea at the end of your visit.
I did the tour in a bit more than an hour, but you can spend much more time there! There are plenty of spots to stop, to sit and to feel the place. It is really a place where you can take your time. Waterfall, lakes, plants, flowers, trees, rocks and architecture are perfectly balanced to make your walk pleasant. It has been made by Chinese architects and really tell a story about this culture. Birds and lizards seem to love the place too!  Part of the My bachelor internship travel blog Part of the list My experience of Sydney

Peaceful garden in the middle of a busy tourist area in Sydney Oct 02, 2008 The area of Sydney known as Darling Harbor is a very busy tourist area that includes the Sydney Aquarium and the Monorail. But if you are looking for a little bit of peace then I recommend the Chinese Garden of Friendship. The garden was build by the Chinese community of Sydney and is a beatiful little spot in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The price is only about $6 to wonder around and see the pagodas, ponds, koi, plants, lizards and some strange kind of bird. On site there is a teahouse though it was closed when I visited. And if you like bonsai there is some examples on view around the garden. Definitely a great spot to spend an hour wandering around before stepping back out to the busy city.

In downtown Sydney is a haven of peace - the Chinese Friendship Garden, (see http://www.chinesegarden.com.au/about.cfm ). It's between Chinatown and Darling Harbour.

But even tourists sometimes have deadlines, and so, boarding the monorail, we headed off to the Chinese Garden of Friendship. Despite being located in the middle of a city, the Chinese Garden has a tranquility that restores and connects, with its combination of plant, architecture and water features. It's quite an expansive garden, with numerous paths, pagodas and places to pause… Friendship |

I walked from the Sydney tower down towards Darling harbour where the Chinese garden of friendship is located. As it was still early there was not many people about. I paid the $6 entry and wondered the gardens. Once you come through the main entrance you are faced with a row of bonsai trees… A day out in Sydney |
