Queen Victoria Gardens

Heading away from the river and crossing the busy Alexandra Avenue you come to the Queen Victoria Gardens. The frontage along St Kilda Road is suitably manicured and includes the large Floral Clock and an equestrian statue of King Edward VII. the Lady Janet Clarke Rotunda as well as lakes and rose gardens.

This site was chosen in 1905 for gardens to commemorate Queen Victoria, and naturally enough contain a large statue of the monarch as a centrepiece. The gardens also contain a small artificial lake and waterfall, rose gardens, rockeries and garden beds as well as impressive landscaped lawns and well established trees.
