Fodor's Review:

Among the 23 gardens here are the Lower Rose Garden, whose classical design was inspired by the Villa Lante gardens in Bagnaia, Italy, and the Oval Rose Garden, where many Texas roses grow. The Japanese Garden is beautiful in fall, when the leaves on the maples begin to turn, and in spring, when cherry and other blossoms burst forth. Also on-site is a 10,000-square-foot conservatory.

  • Cost: Free (main grounds), $1 (conservatory), $3.50 (Japanese garden)
  • Open: Daily, dawn to dusk (main grounds), hours vary for conservatory and Japanese garden
