Exposition Park Rose Garden

Exposition Park · streets · Free

The garden sits in a sunken bowl that makes you forget the freeway noise. In April it smells like nothing else in the city. That's a form of civic memory too.

Established 1913, the garden predates the museums surrounding it. Seven acres sunken below street level, originally designed as a formal demonstration garden.
