royal gardens
Monarch's cultivated estate
Royal gardens are grand, ornamental grounds belonging to or associated with a monarchy—designed landscapes featuring formal arrangements of plants, fountains, sculptures, and walkways.
Many historic royal gardens, like those at Versailles or Kew, are now public attractions: We spent the afternoon wandering the royal gardens.
The phrase suggests both beauty and privilege.
