'''Hanging gardens A'''<ref>'''[[Halo 2: The Official Strategy Guide|Halo 2: The Official Game Guide]]''', page 129</ref> was one of the two [[Hanging Gardens|natural environment modules]] on the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] holy city of ''[[High Charity]]''. 

During the first hours of the [[Great Schism|Covenant Civil War]], both the [[Covenant Separatists]] and the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant Loyalists]] tried to take the gardens. [[Special Operations Sangheili|Special Operations Elites]] and [[Unggoy|Grunts]] dueled with [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] for control of the garden. Later on, two [[Ranger]] Elites came to assist the Separatist cause. In the events of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' [[campaign]] level ''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]'', [[John-117]] slew all of the forces, as the Separatists had not yet joined the cause of the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]. 

The area, although fairly small, was rather complicated. There were two hills on each side, and only one way to get to them. It was sometimes a difficult to find area, especially since the area was somewhat dim. In addition, there was a [[Kig-yar Sniper|Jackal Sniper]] on the immediate right, which might be hard to spot.<ref>''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]''</ref> 

It can be assumed that the Hanging Gardens were destroyed when the [[The Flood|Flood]] invaded [[High Charity]], or if not, it is certain that they were destroyed along with the rest of High Charity at the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]] in the city's destruction on [[Installation 00]].
