I took the Kidz and their friends on a trip around Port Elizabeth the other day to discover and explore a couple of historical attractions. It was a lovely warm winters day so I decided to make St Georges Park one of our stops with a quick look at the Pearson Conservatory before spending some time on the play equipment. The Conservatory (originally opened in 1886) reopened last year after extensive renovations and I still can’t get over how stunning it looks. Definitively worth a visit.
Love this building and will definitely visit it on the next trip.
I remember when the Company Gardens had a neglected old conservatory, which was later demolished.
We visited the conservatory in April. It is a beautiful building and so relaxing to wonder through the plants. I was very surprised that there is so much to see near St George’s Park.
