VANDUSEN BOTANICAL GARDEN

The best $13 you can spend! I went in mid-June and the garden was beautiful, even though most of the flowers had bloomed. The roses were stunning!! I went first thing in the morning, which was great because no people were in my pictures! I spent a solid 1.5 hours here just exploring - it was gorgeous! Highly recommended at any time of the year - the winter display is stunning.

A very beautiful park, worth visiting and enjoying the beauty of green nature and natural waterways. Animals, ducks, booms and trees of all kinds and colors. The most beautiful place in the garden is the green maze in the garden. I recommend trying it, it is very complex and requires high concentration. Thank you and best of luck.

I'm biased as I have been coming here as a kid and the Christmas lights are a a yearly event we attend. No matter how many times I visit or the reason (just because, wedding, Christmas, etc) I enjoy myself. It is basically a large, enclosed park with a variety of themed gardens within it with the highlight being the maze. Even though I've been coming here 20+ years there is always something new I find and the restaurant it good as well. If you are looking for something to do with kids, they will enjoy themselves as well. If you do come for Christmas then expect to hunt for street parking, long lines (buy your tickets before!), and bring cash for things like fresh nuts and cider.
