| | UBC Botanical Garden & Nitobe Japanese Garden | Museum/Attraction Review | Vancouver | Frommers.com |
 | | The prime attraction on campus, besides the fabulous Museum of Anthropology, is the 28-hectare (69-acre) UBC Botanical Garden, home to over 10,000 species of trees, shrubs, and flowers grouped into a B.C. Native garden, a physic (or medicinal) garden, a food garden, and several others. |
 | | Nearby is the Nitobe Memorial Garden, an exquisitely beautiful traditional Japanese garden considered among the top five Japanese gardens in North America and one of the most authentic Tea and Stroll Gardens outside of Japan. |
 | | Give yourself about an hour to stroll through this serene garden dedicated to Inazo Nitobe (1862-1933), whose goal was to be "a bridge across the Pacific." Cherry blossoms are at their peak in April and May, the iris bloom in June, and autumn brings colorful leaf displays. |
