The Google directions on how to get there did not lead me to the entrance area. It told me to go to 12th Avenue on Lincoln, make a U turn, and my destination will be on my right side. The actual entrance was on 9th Avenue. But once I arrived, I was happy to see it was free for local residents, you can bring your lunch, and enjoy the pleasant environment full of plants, succulents, and trees everywhere. I would go back again just to walk through the gardens and have that peaceful feeling with serenity in the clean air atmosphere that seems to calm all my senses even if the Google map directions was a little off at the entrance location which, in fact, I found out there were two separate entrances. Have a cell phone in case you want to meet friends, relatives, and guests there. Take a warm jacket because the weather can change from sunny mornings to afternoon overcast and winds.
