As you walk along the big main path that cuts through Queens Park in Invercargill you come across the band rotunda, a focal point of the Gardens. More recently, birches have been planted here and are notable for their extremely white trunks. Queens Park, Invercargill, Southland, New Zealand. Liz 01 Dec 2018

What a lovely place! Makes you want to spread a blanket, lie down, and find shapes in the clouds above! ☁️

They sometimes have public entertainment in this space, perfect for it!

Love the white-barked birch trees – probably my favourite tree. (We have one here and there was one in our last garden in Scotland too – very easy to grow.)

Yes, there’s quite a few planted in parks and gardens down south here although the super-white one is relatively new (and very eye-catching)!
