    A must-do. One of my favourite spots in the city! Walk up near the cemetery, by the pines for awesome views of the Waikato River!

    Must visit! Set aside an hour or so to get lost in their many different gardens. Gardens are split into different themes which makes it even more interesting.

    Great place for weddings, really inexpensive but you can't take any champers and you may get a few onlookers.
