    Queens Park

    Arrive at Queens Park before the sun breaks. The lake and rose garden are quietest now. Find a spot near the water’s edge facing west to watch the sky change.

  2. 07:01

    Convoy

    Walk two minutes to Convoy for a coffee. The light is brightening and the café is open for the morning rush.

  3. 07:31

    BAM

    Head twelve minutes away to BAM for breakfast. The early light makes the simple menu feel like a reward after the chill of the morning.

Local tip

Queens Park is large. If the main lake area is crowded, walk further north toward the sunken garden for more space. Check the tram schedule if you need to return to the gallery later.
