Description
A short ferry ride away from Manhattan’s powerful downtown financial district sits one of New York City’s best kept secrets, The Staten Island Botanical Garden. Nestled within the grounds of the Snug Harbor Cultural Center, The Staten Island Botanical Garden with its Victorian charm and stately elegance is a “must visit” that should be on every tourists’ list. Founded in 1977, The Staten Island Botanical Garden is constantly evolving. From its initial plantings of its English perennial border to its newest addition, the New York Chinese Scholar’s Garden, this institution is a cultural assimilation of gardens.A short ferry ride away from Manhattan’s powerful downtown financial district sits one of New York City’s best kept secrets, The Staten Island Botanical Garden.
