Escape the bustle of Canterbury city centre and relax in the Franciscan Gardens.
The Franciscan Gardens are a peaceful 1.5-acre heritage garden and 800-year-old historic site, located alongside the river Stour in Canterbury. Even on a busy day in Canterbury, the gardens are an oasis of calm, where visitors can pause to relax, reconnect with nature, and soak in 8 centuries of garden history.
The Gardens are centrally located off the High Street, a short 10-minute walk from all the major railway and bus stations.
Visitors are welcome to explore at their own pace and return throughout the day, taking advantage of our day ticket.
