New York Botanical Garden

The New York Botanical Garden is located in Bronx, New York. It was founded in 1891, and coveres about 250 acres. Visitors will see waterfalls, hills, rivers, woods, ponds, and of course, lots of plants and flowers.
Located within the garden, is the Everette Children's Adventure Garden. There's a Boulder Maze that kids can climb, and a touch tank for getting up close to water-loving plants. There's also an indoor lab for doing experiments.
The garden is open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 6:00 PM. Admission is $1.00 for children, and $6.00 for adults.

  2. So beautiful! I"d say it would be $6 well-spent, or $12 if I could convince my hubby to go along :)

  3. It is so nice they made part of the park for children. The art gallery in Vancouver has a special room for children where they can paint and make things.

    1. That's really nice. It's good when kids can get involved with gardening or art.
