This walk begins opposite the Woolloomooloo Naval base , it then goes around to enter the Botanical Gardens through the eastern entrance on the harbour then skims around harbour edge of the Botanical Gardens before exiting out the western exit/entrance beside the Sydney Opera House , then continues around to Circular Quay past the ferry wharfs and finishes by the Sydney Museum of Modern Art near the Cruise Ship Terminal.
Hello Billy, the Botanical Gardens and I go way back, I remember President Clinton planting that tree, I walked past it about 3 weeks after he had planted it. To look at it now 28 years later it stands majestically there. All those beautiful trees in that garden must be prime real estate for the birds. I can't remember the trees being fenced off back in the 90's. I'm glad they've done it now though it protects them a bit. The views from there are absolutely great walking along the harbour. Of course the Opera House speaks for itself, however I remember the controversy they had when they were building the "toaster building" some people thought it may have been too close to the Opera House but they sorted it out. I used to love walking along there I done it countless times. I was never a jogger though I walked everywhere. Still great to see people enjoying the area all these years later. I noticed you looking across the harbour at all those apartments on the other side. Thats the area I was writing about in your Luna Park walk. I don't know if thats classed as Milsons Point or a different suburb altogether. I was wandering if you would do a video on that area, I've never been over that side but it looks a temptation from this side. Its been a long time since I've been to the Gardens, I think maybe 15 years. I used to take Piperlouise to the parts that she was allowed to go. I think the rule of no dogs in the garden still applies. So thank you for your time walking through this great area, I still love it. Cheers till the next one.
That’s so interesting what you say about that Clinton tree , it’s always cool to be able to put a time to something like a plant and see how it has grown over the years. I try to go through the garden at least once a month , my favourite areas being the palm area and the cactus area - love chilling by the ponds as well. Milsons point is only on the left of the bridge if you are looking north , the right side is Kirribilli , I have done a walk around there you could watch if you haven’t already , goes past government house and the kings spot next door where he just stayed. I intend to film around Mosman sometime soon which is further to the right of Kirribilli closer to Taronga Zoo. Cheers Craig Stay well 🙂
