South Bank Parklands

Description

Characterized by striking design and architecture, these lush parklands comprise Brisbane's cultural heart. Suffering hard times at the end of World War II, South Bank has risen like a Phoenix from the flames. The timely arrival of the World Expo in 1988 and recent financial investment has seen the area flourish into a world-class recreation area. From the State Library to the Maritime Museum to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre , the Parklands sprawl for 17 hectares along the banks of the Brisbane River . The striking man-made lagoon brings the beach to the City. Entertainment features regularly and Markets are held each weekend.

Worth visiting in Brisbane

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/16/05

The atmosphere there is fantastic with much to eat and do. However, it's often extremely packed especiallyl during weekends or during school holidays. It definitely is worth visiting for those who's trip to Brisbane is a first and for those who have young children.

Maybe .. Maybe not

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/13/04

Great fun for a family or anyone interested ... But try to find a car park! Not one to be found anywhere! Also, the water can get fairly dirty with too many people there, and smoking is allowed, so lil kids and those not wanting to inhale smoke... not a good idea.. toodles have a fun time!

Pleasant Walk for the empty Wallet

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 1/13/09

There isn't much to do when you walk along South Bank as far as spending money goes but it is a nice little walk for some pretty eye candy. Especially in the early morning when hardly anyone is out yet. Lowlight: There isn't much to do but take a walk and stop at a man made beach (but why do that when the real thing is just miles away?) Highlight: The beautiful bougainvilla accented by the Brisbane river and wonderful skiline of Brisbane itself.

Mystical

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 1/6/05

Love South Bank! I took my daughter to Mumma Mia, we walked through the Bogonvilla at night. Went to the markets, had a drink and something to eat. Was a safe place to take my teenage daughter to at night and there was parking if you are prepared to pay for it. We are going out again soon, just to hang out and spend time together.
