Japanese Tea Garden

The 24 Best Things to Do in San Francisco

"The oldest continuously operating public Japanese garden in North America, the Japanese Tea Garden, located in Golden Gate Park, is a wonderful spot to relax while exploring the park, but it's also worth a trip in its own right. Sitting among the perfectly pruned trees, small Japanese-style buildings, and gently flowing water features, sipping tea, it’s impossible not to relax, even on those Saturdays when the place gets a bit busier. Locals get a discount on entry ($7 instead of $10), so be sure to bring your ID." - Kimberley Lovato, Carey Jones
