Enchanted garden within the Pipemakers Park on the Maribyrnong River

Unkempt, abandoned, wistful, enchanted garden. 

The plaques are eroding. And, so are the encrypted words: with a message from the past about the "Garden of the Future". I took these photos while I strolled through the garden, which I had seen years ago when it was part of the Living Museum of the West. The garden is silent and still. A short distance away the Maribyrnong River meanders.
