Lonely Planet review for Chinese Garden of Friendship
Built according to the balanced principles of yin and yang, the Chinese Garden of Friendship is an oasis of tranquillity. Designed by architects from Guangzhou (Sydney’s sister city) for Australia’s bicentenary in 1988, the garden interweaves pavilions, waterfalls, lakes, paths and lush plant life – it’s too serene for words (so shut up and be still). The teahouse is a chilled-out spot for scones, dim sims, a sandwich or a slice of quiche, and there are Ming- and Ching-dynasty court costumes are available for those who like to play dress ups (adult/child $10/5).
