Just 17 kilometers from Sydney C.B.D., the park features a spectacular Japanese Garden with traditional style Japanese landscaping including a waterfall, decorative bridges and ornamental trees set around a large lake.

In August each year, the gardens are home to Cumberland Council’s Cherry Blossom Festival.

Auburn Botanic Ornamental Japanese Garden is located on the corner of Chiswick & Chisholm Rds.

The Auburn Botanic Gardens sprawls over some 9.2 hectares and features a stunning range of horticultural and fauna attractions, along with substantial picnic grounds.

Key features of the Auburn Botanic Gardens include:

The Japanese garden
Fauna Reserve and aviary
The native and rainforest garden
The scented garden
The sunken rose garden
An amphitheatre
An equal access playground
In addition, a community picnic area with communal BBQs is located immediately outside the gardens.

Given the unique and varied backdrops available, the Auburn Botanic Gardens are often used for commercial video and still photography. Cumberland Council manage the Gardens.
