Nestled in Bellevue's heart, in Wilburton Hill Park, is this botanical treasure. The garden is really several gardens in one. The Yao Japanese Garden is a marvel of simplicity. The Alpine Garden features high-altitude plant life, and the Waterwise Garden is a more practical affair, offering numerous tips and suggestions to the amateur gardener. The gift shop sells books on plants, garden-related gifts, and tools to help you succeed in your own gardening endeavors.

Take the Victoria Clipper to Victoria for a day, or overnight or weekend. It is a beautiful city and the Victoria Clipper takes you right from Seattle waterfront to Victoria's inner harbor. Once there everything is walking distance. There's great biking infrastructure as well.
