Standing on a hill above the river Mander in the heart of the Reach, Highgarden has three concentric walls, briar labyrinths, orchards and terraced gardens climbing to its towers. Fields and vineyards stretch away in every direction.
House Gardener ruled here as Kings of the Reach until the Conquest, when the Tyrells, their stewards, were raised to the seat by Aegon. Lord Mace Tyrell holds it now, and the Reach can put more men in the field than any other region.
