Piccadilly Gardens, Public park in central Manchester, England

Piccadilly Gardens spans across green lawns with water features and modern architectural elements, including a pavilion designed by Tadao Ando in 2002.

The land transformed from clay pits to a hospital site in 1755, then became public gardens in 1914 following the relocation of Manchester Royal Infirmary.

The gardens display statues of prominent figures including the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel, representing Manchester's historical personalities.

The location functions as a major transport interchange, connecting multiple bus routes and tram services with approximately 150,000 daily passengers.

The space features computer-controlled fountain jets installed during the 2003 renovation, creating water patterns across the modernized landscape.
