Canterbury Gardens — Attraction in Melbourne

Finally! Got to explore the garden at the junction of Balwyn & Canterbury Rd which always looked inviting driving past. While it is more of a park, a small one at that - it does have a deep gully sloping terrain in the middle with a hidden creek.. Bitumen paths along the top & one cutting through over the bridge. Dogs & cyclists allowed.

With the busy drone of traffic along Canterbury Rd even on a Sunday - it is not exactly tranquil. No playground but has a gazebo for added interest & plenty of garden seats. The limited floral plantings & parterre are along the Station side & back boundary.

There is one BBQ & bench table. Just walk through from Surrey Hill station carpark where you will find a park on weekends. Toilet at park entry on Canterbury Rd or at...

This is one of the most beautiful parks in Melbourne. The park spans a small space, but is located in a very convenient location, right next to the Canterbury station.

There is only one covered space in the park though, which is too less for a park this beautiful.

The park also has toilets for convenience...
