The Mt Cootha gardens are a great place to visit.
There is much to see due to Queenslands diverse horticultural climate. You will see weddings being oerformed, etc.
The Japanese Garden is wonderful and very tranquil, the Bonasi house is great, and plenty more as well.
There are food outlets.

On the way back from Mt Cootha, we visited the Botanic Garden. There are many species of plants and colourful flowers, some of which look really funny or even weird. It's an interesting walk!!!
