 Horticulturally based theme park |

About a 30-minute drive from Downtown San Jose sits this brand new, horticulturally aware theme park in Gilroy. Among other things, here you will find a monorail, a miniature golf course, incredible landscaping, several gardens, antique car rides, and the famous circus trees from Scott's Valley that are groomed to grow in fantastical shapes. A multitude of activities for the whole family await you here. The owner sold off a very successful chain of grocery stores in order to create this one-of-a-kind park. Review © 2007, Wcities |

This urban farm covers an impressive 47 acres. It has school tours, orchards, a barnyard, picnic areas and places to fly kites. It is a great place to bring the kids, especially if they like animals; there are zillions of breeds of rabbits, chickens, geese and ducks for them to befriend. The property was originally given to the city of San Jose with the intent that it be used as an agricultural learning center, and in that it succeeds admirably. Admission is free.
