The heritage-listed Rockhampton Botanic Gardens are amongst the oldest public gardens in Queensland. If you are looking for a bite to eat, the Gardens Tearooms are nestled under the 150-year-old Banyan Figs and offer a range of meals and refreshments as well as catering options for special events.

The Japanese Gardens provide tranquillity and peace, while the Cenotaph honours our Australian soldiers.

Also located within the gardens is the Rockhampton Zoo which is open daily and home to more than 30 species of native and exotic animals.
