 | |  |  | Darling Harbour: Chinese Garden of Friendship | Tip Rating:   |  |  | |  |
The few dollars that you'll spend on admission to this place will probably be some of the best money you spend in Sydney. The Garden is a very beautiful place, and very tranquil. It surrounds you with quiet brooks, cascading waterfalls, and traditional landscaping and design the likes of which are exceedingly rare outside China. It is not a very big garden, but you can easily lose yourself there, walking the paths, exploring, or just sitting on a boulder by one of the ponds, taking in the sunshine, the koi, the beauty of the place, and just contemplating life in general. The garden was designed in Guangdong, Sydney's sister city in China, and was a gift to the city for Australia's bicentennial in 1988. Admission is A$6 for adults, cheaper for students/children. Leave a Comment Directions: It is located on the Southern edge of Darling Harbour, near Chinatown. You can easily walk there, or take the monorail to Harbour Gardens.

Designed in China to celebrate the 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 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."
