We were surprised at how many different garden areas exist in this attaction. The landscapes were very nicely designed, and made you want to go home and try it yourself. We also enjoyed the beautiful sculptures situated all around the Gardens. It was an enjoyable and memorable experience. more

We took the tram for an overview of the park, as it was a narrated tour and to rest our feet after days of walking around the streets of NY.

The New York Botanical Garden was inspired by Kew Gardens in England and it is truly impressive. The grounds are meticulously attended to, with every flower bed in full flower and every hedge sharply groomed. The rose garden is not gigantic but very nice, but more interesting are the other unusual gardens displaying cacti, ferns, and other less common landscaping... more

My friend and I visit at least a handful of botanical gardens each year, and the New York botanical garden is one of the largest and most impressive. Gorgeous garden: beautiful landscape and an exquisite greenhouse with plants from all over the world. I especially like the rose collection...so nice in the spring! more
