The Huntington Gardens

The Huntington Library has a collection of rare books, paintings and fabulous botanical gardens. It is located in San Marino, CA. We didn't get to go see the books and the paintings, but the gardens were amazing! There were so many different environments with different types of plants. I definitely want to go back in the future.
