Roma Street Parkland covers 16 Hectare s in the centre of Brisbane , Queensland , Australia . Converted from abandoned railyards which lay dormant for nearly a decade, the Roma Street Parkland is adjacent to Brisbane Transit Centre and the Roma Street Station . There is pedestrian access to the Roma Street Parkland from the Roma Street Station , as well as from Albert Street, and from the section of the Parkland which used to be called Albert Park , in Wickham Terrace. There is also a car park area, for motorists, with road access from the intersection between Wickham Terrace, College Road and Gregory Terrace. The car park area can be seen in the parkland photo. Roma Street Parkland is possibly the world's largest subtropical garden in a city centre. The parkland features a variety of themed gardens and recreational areas, with a web of pathways and boardwalks traversing cascading waterways and rocky outcrops, and also ''in situ ''artworks by 16 local artists. Roma Street Parkland also has an open air Amphitheatre (which was previously called the Albert Park Amphitheatre). There is also a special ''ride-on Train '' to take visitors around the parkland.
