The Hidden Gardens, Public garden in Pollokshields, Glasgow, United Kingdom.
The Hidden Gardens is a public garden in Glasgow with diverse plant species, seasonal flowers, and designed landscapes spread across several connected green spaces. The areas feature quiet corners and open sections arranged for community gatherings and leisurely walks.
The garden opened in 2002 as part of an effort to transform abandoned industrial land into a public space with guidance from the NVA Europe organization. This project became one of many urban renewal initiatives that brought forgotten areas back into community use.
The gardens reflect the diverse communities of Glasgow through their design and permanent art installations you can see while walking through. Different cultural expressions come together in the plantings and artworks that fill the spaces.
The location is easy to reach on weekdays and offers plenty of space to walk, sit, and explore at your own pace. Clear paths let you move through the different areas independently and find quiet spots to enjoy.
Audio guides in English and Urdu let visitors experience the garden from a distance by listening to its sounds and discovering its views. This creative approach opens the site to people who cannot visit in person.
