One of attraction on the Peak. If you take tram or bus, you need to walk some minutes up to the hill. If you hike by morning trail, you get there by governor’s trail. Well maintains nicely organised big green area. Relax and rest in peace far away from busy downtown. Lookout place just few hundred meter further

Cool garden , lots to walk around and places to sit, there is a view but it's not of the skyline, just a different area.
