The Botanic Garden is in a canyon, which creates an interesting mix of micro climates/environments, and affords a greater diversity of plant life than you might see in a different location. The staff are friendly and informative. There is come interesting history regarding the "water works" that began back in the Mission times. Good place for a picnic, and great place for a view of the Channel Islands on a clear day.
