About Alexandra Gardens
Welcome to Alexandra Gardens, a peaceful oasis located in the heart of Cardiff that offers a mix of natural beauty and historic charm. As one of the city's most popular tourist attractions, we offer a range of activities and amenities that cater to visitors of all ages and interests.
Our park was designed in the early 1900s and originally served as a private garden for the wealthy Alexandra family. Today, it is open to the public and boasts immaculately maintained lawns, stunning flower beds, and a range of mature trees that provide welcome shade during the summer months. When you visit Alexandra Gardens, you will be able to take in the serene atmosphere and beautifully landscaped grounds that make this space such a popular area for relaxing and unwinding throughout the year.
While visiting us, you can also take part in some of the activities that we offer. We have multiple children's play areas that include a climbing frame, swings, and a slide. These areas also offer plenty of seating for parents and caregivers to relax while their little ones play. Plus, we have a range of outdoor sports and games equipment available for visitors to use during their stay, including footballs, frisbees, and lawn games.
Alexandra Gardens is also home to a number of historic features that are sure to interest those looking to learn more about the area's rich history. Among them are our ornate fountains and statues, which are scattered throughout the park and serve as a testament to the heritage of the Alexandra family.
Finally, our institution also offers a range of refreshments and snacks in our onsite café. Whether you're looking to enjoy a coffee and a pastry, or a light lunch, our café is the perfect spot to take a break from the park's hustle and bustle and refuel.
Overall, Alexandra Gardens is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to unwind amid stunning natural surroundings, learn more about the past, and enjoy the best of Cardiff's outdoor spaces. With something to offer visitors of all ages and interests, we look forward to welcoming you to our park soon!

Reviews of Alexandra Gardens
"Such a tranquil and gorgeous place to visit in April, the trees are in full bloom with pink and white blossoms. Place for amazing photos."
"Small, compact yet beautiful garden. Perfect for wedding photography as we saw atleast three different wedding photoshoot with flowers falling from trees etc. Although this is right behind the city hall there are no restroom near by but yet a perfect place for picnic or to spend a short time with your loved ones. Grab something to eat with your loved ones and come here for a short lonely break.. You will love it. Would definitely recommend to visit in this busy technological shopping world."
"Nice, peaceful and quiet place, it should be visited in spring time when trees bloom!! It has few number of benches or you could relax on the grass!!"
"Always, well usually, a place of peace right in city centre. Can get a little busy during term time when lots of students take advantage of the peace and quiet, but usually there's space for all. You'll find the Wales national war memorial in the centre and several other memorials and sculptures around this park."
"Nice little park in the middle of the bustling city. Very grand war memorial, and moving stones commemorating those who lost their lives in the Falklands War, the Spanish Civil War, thalidomide victims, and organ donors. Beautifully kept, and lovely floral displays. A lovely, handy place for wedding photos as the it's just behind the Registry Office in City Hall."
