Explore Canberra’s historically rich garden landscape at the Old Parliament House Rose Gardens. Established in 1927, the gardens were designed as a retreat for parliamentarians and their families, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of political life.
Now for all to enjoy, the Rose Gardens feature over 500 varieties of roses across 4,000 rose bushes, including rare varieties that came from as far away as Persia and China.
The tour takes you on a journey of history and horticulture, sharing the story of humble beginnings before the unique design transformed the windswept plains into a beautiful sanctuary for relaxation and fun. Rose Garden tours offers a blend of historical tales and beauty and stories behind the roses in bloom.
These popular tours run for a limited time only, so book your tickets now.
