FEATURED COMMENT

A trip here is definitely a feast for the eyes, especially during spring. My favorites are the Dogwood Collection and the Butterfly Garden at the Staten Island Botanical Garden, which is located within Snug Harbor's grounds. The Chinese Scholar's Garden, among the few in the nation, is also phenomenal. –user cruciverbalist on Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden
