HUNTINGTON LIBRARY, MUSEUM, AND GARDENS

Explore an enchanting oak forest with centuryyear-old trees that tower above you, then transport yourself to a Japanese oasis, complete with a teahouse, and be amongst the camelias. Since it’s summer, their rose garden will be in bloom, but as you stroll through you will be sure to encounter other treasures in this botanical bastion tucked in the quaint, foothill community of La Cañada.
