The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens
4.8 (8,572)museum
A 120-acre estate pairing rare manuscripts and fine art with lush Chinese, Japanese, and desert gardens.
Description






Across the property, pathways weave through 16 themed botanical gardens, passing through a rose garden and around the Shōya House. Indoors, air-conditioned spaces house European and American art collections alongside the Boone Gallery and a rare-book library anchored by a Gutenberg Bible. Because the grounds are so widely spread out, the estate rarely feels crowded, offering shaded spots to sit and quaint cafes to break up hours of walking.
