Stroll around the garden and take in the views of numerous artistic structures nestled cosy alongside vibrant multi-hued plants, trees and flowers.

A crowd favourite spot to squat for a picnic is closer to the imposing fig tree. Overlooking the picturesque harbour, this spot is a picnic paradise.So unpack your picnic basket and leave all your worries behind in Wendy’s Secret Garden.

Royal Botanical Garden
