A great place. Get there on City Cat via the river. beautiful Parkland, a beach, restaurants, shops, and play areas. Markets in the evening as well. All right in the centre of Brisbane, it's a real gem.

Lots of restaurants here and theatre etc. Good to see. They do a free tour from Information Desk. Not too much to do in Winter. Kids would love the Ferris Wheel

A very worthwhile view of Brisbane & environs..you get 4 full revolutions.. The walking paths are very well set out...although if you cross the river,you share the tracks with cyclists...Be Careful !!

Cool little hideaway place in central Brisbane, you definetly don't feel like you're in a city here. Grass, sand, pools and plenty of cafes, restaurant and bars in the surrounding area.

A great place to stroll along the river front and take in the sights and sounds of Brisbane, there are plenty of shops to pop into , plenty of eateries and even a pub to while away an hour or so, the pub grub is good too. On the weekend there is a market that has lots of different stalls... More
