Ok I absolutely love this place. It's beautiful and quaint Botanical Garden, and so pretty and completely unique, that it even regularly hosts weddings and other celebratory events here Thursday's thru Mondays. There is a cute cafe with great, delicious food, homemade pie, and a really cute store with butterflies and cut baby goats nearby, you can hold .... this is a must go to. You can also basically buy pretty much anything you see here displayed around the property. It's free to get into and one of my favorite places. Put this on your itinerary for sure ;)

This is a nice hike, great place to bring a picnic. Probably half is shaded. Its pretty flat, with a few areas to climb around. I've only gone as far as the swimming area, which is about 30 min. in. You pard in this parking lot, and walk/hike through this beautiful forest and you'll meet a few people with dogs, and lots of friendly other hikers, and then all the the sudden it opens up to the really nice water area with people playing in the water to cool off, kids in their bathing suits. This is a nice easy hike. I'd recommend. I like to do this earlier or later in the day. Pretty close :)

Everything Else
This place is free to go to and you don't have to be Buddhist. It's a beautiful place and you can meditate or take in the views and two days a week the offer free like a meditation (how to meditate basically) sessions and then kind of a 30 min Buddhist 101 class. It's not religious, but more spiritual. The views are spectacular & there are garden areas to wander & a giant Budda, but be mindful there monks living there. People are extremely friendly. Also there is a super cool 100 year old live giant tortoise there & lots of little turtle statues & someone said that turtles in life are a reminder to slow down in life, to stop and look around, and just be present. I liked that.
