Visiting the Ipswich region is a cultural experience which is educational and entertaining. During your visit to Best Western Ipswich self catering accommodation, we recommend a visit to the popular Queens Park where you'll enjoy an old world charm with modern day conveniences. Close to the Ipswich CBD, Queens Park provides shady gardens and a relaxing area to spend the day with a great number of things to do.
Some highlights at Queens Park include:
Lions’ Lookout
Check out the view of the Ipswich City business district, nearby mountain ranges and Cunningham’s Gap.
Rotunda
At the entrance to the Nature Centre, you'll find the octagonal rotunda where bands play to up to 2000 people on Saturday afternoons.

Bowls Clubhouse
