Japanese Gardens

One of the most visited and beautiful parks in Toowoomba is the Ja Raku En Japanese Garden at the University of Southern Queensland and is open daily from 6am to dusk.

The gardens, which are also a popular wedding venue, consist of a seamless combination of 230 species of Japanese and Australian native plants, rocks, pathways and waterfalls. The gardens are the ideal place to unwind and relax. Picture yourself strolling around the four and a half hectare site surrounded by mesmerising scents and lush greenery.

BIG4 Toowoomba is only 2kms from the Japanese Gardens, which means you could certainly walk there, making it the ideal place to base yourself during your stay in Toowoomba.
