A magical little stop in Fitzroy Gardens — the Fairies’ Tree is a beautifully carved red gum stump filled with fairies, animals, and mythical creatures. Sculpted by artist Ola Cohn in the 1930s as a gift to the children of Melbourne, it’s full of charm and whimsy, and still lovingly preserved today. A fun, imaginative spot for kids and adults alike!
