Lennox Gardens, Urban park near Lake Burley Griffin in Canberra, Australia
The gardens extend along the southern shore of Lake Burley Griffin, featuring green lawns with views of Black Mountain and the Brindabella Ranges.
Before Lake Burley Griffin's construction, the area contained Lennox Crossing, named after David Lennox, which served as a main crossing point over Molonglo River.
The park includes the Beijing Garden with a Chinese pavilion and the Nara Peace Park with Japanese elements, representing sister city relationships.
The gardens provide barbecue stations, picnic areas, public toilets, parking facilities, and accessible pathways for visitors with disabilities.
The Canberra Rotary Peace Bell, installed in 2018, stands as one of only 27 peace bells worldwide that ring together on the UN International Day of Peace.
