Traffic in Oakland peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then.

What a cool dog friendly garden. Somehow in many walks around Lake Merritt weβve never gone in before. Lots of meandering paths through very well maintained gardens. Thereβs a Japanese theme, but I didnβt see that much bonsai, but still really liked this space.

Located inside the gardens at Lake Merritt. Free entrance, but donations are accepted. Itβs an interesting thing to check out because there were a lot of bonsai trees that I wasnβt aware could be cultivated into a bonsai tree. Thereβs also a gift shop where you can purchase merch.

Stop by to see 100+ bonsais and knowledgeable bonsai enthusiasts (free/donation encouraged)! Worth a little side trip if youβre walking around the lake. Seeing a mini California redwood was super special. Plus, they supposedly have a tree that is 500 years old. Wild!

I recently visited this wonderful garden, and it was an amazing experience! The place is full of vibrant flowers and stunning bonsai trees, creating a truly picturesque atmosphere. Itβs great that people can come here on weekends to relax, take a walk, or even contribute by helping out. The atmosphere is peaceful and refreshing. Everything is so well-maintained, making it a perfect spot to enjoy nature. I especially loved the **Air Bee n Bee** for bees! Highly recommend visiting this beautiful place. πΏπΈπ
