Carlton Gardens Melbourne


The Exhibition Fountain, designed for the 1880 Exhibition by sculptor Joseph Hochgurtel



The Carlton Gardens is a World Heritage Site of 26-hectare site with Royal Exhibition Building, Melbourne Museum and Imax Cinema, tennis courts and an award-winning children's playground. It is situated on the northeastern edge of the Central Business District in the suburb of Carlton, Melbourne

The rectangular site is bound by Victoria Street, Rathdowne Street, Carlton Street, and Nicholson Street. From the Exhibition building the gardens gently slope down to the southwest and northeast.

The gardens are an example of Victorian landscape design with sweeping lawns and varied European and Australian tree plantings consisting of deciduous English oaks, White Poplar, plane trees, elms, conifers, cedars, turkey oaks, Araucarias and evergreens such as Moreton Bay figs, combined with flower beds of annuals and shrubs.

A network of tree-lined paths provides formal avenues for highlighting the fountains and architecture of the Exhibition building.
