Enjoy California's beauty at the Villa Montalvo Arboretum. This nature preserve has 175 acres of hiking trails nestled among formal and informal gardens. Be sure to visit the Italianate Garden, which features hundreds of white roses, citrus plants, and a Cypress tree. Garden varieties range from succulents to shrubs. The grounds are also bedecked with sculptures that were contributed to the park by artists from many ages.

After viewing the local plants, step into a different country's garden at Hakone Estate and Gardens. This tranquil garden was featured in the film "Memoirs of a Geisha," and plays host to one of the oldest Japanese estates in the western hemisphere.

If you wish to enjoy a deeper appreciation of the culture, engage in one of the Docent-led tea ceremonies.
