Promenade Gardens
A refined colonial-era garden in the city center, with gazebos, flower beds and shady old trees, ideal for a rest during a walk around town.
Promenade Gardens is in Central Georgetown. It was laid out as a parade ground in 1851 and later converted into a garden. It features Victorian gazebos, fountains, blooming tropical flowers and old rain trees. Parrots and squirrels are often seen here. Locals come to stroll and to take wedding photos. Admission is free. The garden is small, and you can see it in 20 to 30 minutes. It can be combined on foot with nearby St. George's Cathedral and the Walter Roth Museum of Anthropology.
