A beautiful green space in the heart of the city. Plenty of walking trails, beautiful flowers & greenery with many benches to sit and take in nature's beauty. The hydrangeas are absolutely gorgeous. The ravine experience with the suspension bridge is nice, especially for kids. The Japanese Garden (Yao Garden) has wonderful colors especially in the fall. The rock garden is full of bloom during late spring / summer. Plenty of free parking and free entrance (except for the lights festival that is held in the evenings before Christmas). During the Christmas lights, parking at the park fills up very quickly but there is plenty of parking a short walk away.
such a beautiful and peaceful place to visit. The gardens are well maintained, with colorful flowers, amazing plants, and beautiful walking paths. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxing walk, taking photos, or spending quality time with family and friends. Every season brings something new to see, and the atmosphere feels calm and refreshing. A must-visit place in Bellevue! A definitely yes!! Place for Nature ❤️ lover. Best place to visit now( specially in Summer ☀️)
1st visit: what a beautiful botanical garden. Spring was truly springing. There were so many pretty flowers in there. I especially enjoyed the Satura cherry blossom tree. The large birds nests are fun. The Ravine was so cool to experience. A full day is needed to the explore gardens. There’s so much to see. The surrounding area is gorgeous. Oh, it’s free!
