Midday Gardens houses many splendid golden walls and buildings. It has two small lakes with bridges across both. There is also an ice-filled cavern which houses the [[Icy Peak]] portal. Midday Gardens has plenty of fodder and thus is a good homeworld for collecting lives.

=== Description ===
===Achievements & Trophies ''(Reignited Trilogy) '' ===
Midday Gardens is a world surrounded on one side by steadily-rising brown mountains and a dense forest on the other side. Rabbits are abundant here, both the intelligent kind and the fodder kind. Each large garden holds many different flowers during the spring and summer, with small cobblestone pathways leading visitors through each one. There are some small waterfalls and streams running through to provide water for the plants, as well as large trees and stone-built structures to shelter creatures from the sun. The grass here is always green, and many smooth river stones dot the banks. While the temperature here is a bit on the hot side, its subworlds are by far the most different compared to their core world.

{{#ev:youtube|texZ4f42uGI|367px}} It's possible to perform the swim in the air glitch to enter locked portals as well as to reach a hidden room in the homeworld. It involves jumping onto a rock next to the Superflame power-up, gliding towards the start of a nearby river, hovering, and then headbashing at just the right time. It can be difficult to achieve, as Spyro may instead just float on the water, or fall to his death depending on timing.

It is unknown what this secondary room could've been used for, but it might have previously housed the whirligig until it was ready to be used.
