Brooklyn Botanic Garden is a botanical garden in the borough of Brooklyn. A short subway ride from Manhattan, the gardens will give you a sense of peace when walking amongst the incredible nature.
The 840 acre park will give you a break from the chaos of New York’s streets and allow you the opportunity to get lost in nature for a little while. You can visit Central Park Zoo, take a paddle boat out on one of the many lakes or simple watch the world go by from the comfort of a bench.
The park was designed in the 1860’s by the same designers of Central Park. This urban park is a great retreat for a family picnic, a casual walk in the park or a game of football with your mates. Keep a lookout for any upcoming events in the park throughout the year.
