Melbourne garden context
Two 19th-century gardens shaped by the growing city
Fitzroy Gardens and Treasury Gardens developed as Melbourne expanded during the 19th century, providing planned green space beside government buildings and new residential streets. Their paths, trees and monuments reflect changing ideas about public recreation and civic display. This quest turns the connected landscape into a secret walk without inventing one hidden historical plot. Playable languages: English.
