Information About

Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens




Prior to European settlement, local Aboriginal tribes used the site, and traces of their occupation are still apparent.

The visitor centre houses a restaurant, souvenir shop, and a gallery with regularly changing displays by local artists, together with a display area containing the Gardens' own exhibitions.
