Description

The Brooklyn Botanic Garden spreads over 52 acres, where the conservatory houses a remarkable collection of bonsai, orchids, and cacti. Visitors often call it a peaceful urban oasis, especially in the early morning when it feels like your own. The rose garden is a highlight at the end of May, and the annual cherry blossom festival is particularly kid-friendly. Some suggest buying tickets online in advance, as the on-site line can move slowly, and noting that outside food and drink are not permitted.
