The New York Botanical Garden (NYBG)
If you've been dreaming of Victorian children's lit, come play Alice in Wonderland or Mary of Misselthwaite Manor at the New York Botanical Gardens. This massive green space, 250 acres of over one million living plants, up in the Bronx houses an azalea garden, a glass-walled conservatory, a lilac collection, and everything else you could possible dream up.
