Royal Botanic Garden Sydney

As soon as you pass through the gates here, you’ll feel an immediate energy shift. Located in the bustling CBD, it’s bordered on one side by towering skyscrapers and on the other by the harbour’s glistening waters and offers 30 hectares of manicured gardens for meditation and contemplation. To find a spot away from the city’s lunchtime joggers, you’ll need to walk deep into the garden away from the city. Down by the herb garden you can find a comfortable chair and a quiet nook, and you can meditate while surrounded by great-smelling herbs.
