Introduction
The Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne sits on the south bank of the Yarra River, one of Australia's most prestigious botanic gardens, vast and picturesque. Rolling lawns, tranquil lakes and over eight thousand plants from around the world are arranged throughout, with pleasant scenery in every season, and home to black swans, water birds and possums. With both carefully designed theme gardens and greenhouses, it is also Melburnians' favorite place for morning runs, picnics, weddings and afternoon sun. Summer nights host open-air cinema and the Moonlight Cinema, a quiet elegant green space beside the busy city.
