Historic
Alberton is surrounded by a beautiful half-hectare park-like garden.
Visitors
can stroll around the lawn and admire the many protected trees including magnificent
old oaks, Californian Redwood, Japanese Cedars, rare sandpaper figs, and old fruit
trees. The garden provides a peaceful oasis amid the bustle of central Auckland
where you can hear native bird sond and the sound of water splashing from the
ancient fountain.
The picturesque garden is a small reminder of the large
formal garden which was originally located in front of Alberton. It is a lovely
area to enjoy for a stroll or as a backdrop for wedding photographs.
