Quiet paths, Government House


Government House in the Botanic Gardens used to be the residence of the Governor of NSW (the Queen's epresentative in the state). Marie Bashir, the current Gov doesn't live here, and the grounds are open to the public.

There are lots of quiet, and beautiful, places to escape the rush of the city. Even the ibis find it ideal.

  4. That is a very peaceful scene, with a lovely fountain and water lilies, cranes and pathways.
