    This's my favorite place which I usually spent time on the weekend. It's very lively & relaxing with the green environment, activities, Brisbane river, and sunrise.

    This park is great for both adults and families. There are many shops and markets here and the Brisbane Skyline is clearly visible in its entirety. Walk along the river and enjoy the view.

    Lovely modern Riverside Park with a lovely view of the city skyline. Swim in the pool, bake in the sun or just stroll along the Riverside.

    That's probably my fave spot in Brisbane, very pleasant to walk around! You can see the Brisbane sign, the city beach and the wheel of Brisbane.

    Great place for a stroll up and down the Brisbane river. My favourite place is the lawn at the south east end of the park, and the lovely restaurants behind it.

    Scenic parks and views looking I've the city, great for photos. Plus with the latest pokemon Go craze, is apparently really busy with players due to the parklands having heaps of nodes.

    Riverfire Tip: Best spot for the whole shebang, if you can stand the crowds. Get there early to save your spot.

    Put your bike on a train, get off at Vulture St, cruise the parklands down to the Cultural precinct. Ride the boardwalk along the river. Or go across the Goodwill Bridge to the Old Gardens & get treed

    Bring a date and share a big long sloppy pash in the middle of a grassed area. Just go right ahead, we don't mind, it's not awkward at all.

    Beware of couples having sex at Streets Beach early in the morning. Not something the kids need to see.
