Garden regulations

Botanic Gardens are different from public parks in that they’re living museums, filled with valuable living collections.

Botanic Gardens are also internationally-regarded as places for visitors to seek peace beauty and tranquillity, so activities that impede this (such as the use of drones) are also discouraged. You must not:

• Bring dogs or other pets into the garden
• Throw away the trash
• Picnics are prohibited into the garden
• Prune, cut, damage plants
• Troubling the tranquility of the animals: touching them, throwing projectiles at them, giving them food foreign to the garden
• Cross animal fences
• Bathing in waterfalls and pools
• To be shirtless and in a swimsuit
• Fly drones in or above the garden
• Ride bikes / bicycles, scooters, skateboards or rollerblades
• Bring alcohol into the garden
• Play ball or throwing games

Thank you for contributing to the safety of our community.
