City Park, Launceston

The Launceston Park is nicely located in the heart of the business district of town. It's not massive but it can be considered as a people's park because it has the basic amenities of a public park. People can see animals, appreciate nature, mesmerize by the old architectures in the area or just breath the freshest air the world has to offer. The well manicured lawns is welcoming for first time visitors and by just walking in the park, you can have a glimpse of some bits and pieces of history of the place during the early days of the settlers. The Park have few entrances and exits from multiple streets and you can see walkers, joggers, cyclist, picnic goers, event phot shoots, and photographers, etc around the park. This park is also a good place to celebrate life moments like birthdays, weddings and anniversaries. . One thing to note, is that dogs are not allowed inside the park and if you bring your car, off street parking is available around the area and during Saturdays, Harvest Market is just around the corner. The park is not that well maintained though, smelly water from the pond, the fountain and its water is visibly not been taken cared very well. I think the council/ park administration needs to do more than what they are doing now. Maybe more staff or hours needs to be allocated in maintaining the park, or they can distribute forms or ask online and ask some suggestion from the general public about the best way to improve the park for the future generations to enjoy.

Lovely park across the road from our accommodation. Beautiful gardens lush green lawns, stunning display of orchids in the conservatory. I just was amazed by the Macaque display so cute and entertaining such a fantastic idea and free to view them. Such a rare find.

Great place for a walk. Located centrally within Launceston. Has a play area for the kids. Others will enjoy the gardens full of flowers. Kids will also enjoy a ride on the kids train which takes around 10mins a quick tour around the park. The local wildlife consist of several ducks, various birds and monkeys. Worth a visit.

What a pretty little park in the city with a monkey enclosure. Beautiful place to have a stroll around and also has cafe in the park. The grounds are very well looked after with beautiful flowering fauna and flora.

Been here a couple of times. It is a good park to go to for a break. Has a conservatory, an enclosure with monkeys. The flowers were in bloom and beautiful. Heaps of spots to sit and enjoy lunch.
