The garden itself is a bit plain. Probably also due to the drought. But the walk up the hill was very nice and you had a good view over the city. 35 min return. Wear good shoes! ; )
Nice enough for a short walk but obviously as it is desert plants it's not the most colourful of botanic gardens. Busy cafe though.
