The Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens, which cover an area of approximately 14 hectares, were established in Hobart in 1818 and are located within the Queens Domain. They are very beautiful and peaceful. The Gardens hold historic plant collections and a large number of significant trees, many dating back to the nineteenth century. We finished the day having lunch at one of our favourite restaurants, Maldini Italian Restaurant in Salamanca. Great food !!!!!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2287\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2287\" style=\"width: 203px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a
