Parks & Nature
Queens Park has long been a cherished space in the Moonee Valley district. Its former swampy center offered a resting spot for miners during the gold rush. Renovated as a public garden in 1897, the original swamp has since been transformed into a large lake containing several small islands, a pergola, a fountain and an abundance of birdlife.
