One of Washington's Little Known Treasures 9/17/2005

The Arboretum, far away from the tourist-laden Nation Mall, is a great place to get away. You can bike, hike, or walk your dog here. Find peace at the Bonsai exhibit. Marvel at the state trees in the State tree grove. There is so much to see here, and the setting is really peaceful. There is a tram-ride (fee) tour of the Arboretum, which is a great way to familiarize yourself with it's offerings. more

Park n' Park 8/16/2005

If you like your nature manicured and fenced in, this is the place. The Arboretum is a huge, well-kept park just 15 minutes from downtown DC. Rolling hills, several beautiful lawns, short nature trails, an amazing Banzai garden, and some views of the Anacostia make this park unique. This is an American arboretum, so you can drive through it, too, and just get out to snap a few photos. Occasional activities, such as Koi festivals, enliven the visitors center. more
