Fitzroy Gardens is a large urban park located in the center of the Australian city of Melbourne. It extends over an area of 26 hectares covered with beautiful vegetation. There are ponds, fountains and small architecture constructions. Its current appearance does not allow to assume that before the creation of the city garden, there were wetlands with a maze of streams, to which the inhabitants of the surrounding houses were carrying sewage. However, the situation changed at the beginning of the 20th century, when the city built the public sewage system and the wetlands were drained. At that time a decision to create a park in their place was also taken.
