Escape the hustle and bustle at the Chinese Garden of Friendship, just 1.1 km or a 15-minute walk from Ibis Styles Sydney Central. This peaceful oasis in Darling Harbour blends traditional Chinese architecture, waterfalls, koi ponds and winding pathways into a serene retreat.
Stroll past weeping willows, explore hidden pavilions, or enjoy tea and dumplings at the onsite Teahouse. It’s a perfect slow-paced experience after a day of city exploring, and a lovely spot for reflection, photos or simply relaxing in nature.
Built as a symbol of friendship between Sydney and Guangdong, this garden is a cultural gem and one of the city’s most beautiful hidden spaces. Visit the Chinese Garden of Friendship
