A garden pause in the city
Use the official map to choose a manageable section of the garden, with time to sit and enjoy the planting. Heritage buildings and individual displays have their own access arrangements; a garden visit does not require seeing every glasshouse or exhibition.
The North Terrace Main Gate suits the city itinerary's approach from the gallery and its later East End finish. Check your chosen gate and seasonal closing time before wandering further into the grounds.
