Colour City
Orange calls itself the 'Colour City'. Its parks, gardens and autumn colours underpin the identity of the City and its character. From the late nineteenth century, tourism brochures about Orange stressed its healthy climate, four seasons, exotic trees and green parks and gardens.
Articles extolling the attractions of Orange noted the beauty of its parks and healthy cool climate, contrasted with the heat and drought of the western plains.
