There is a nice, free park near the zoo which they call the Botanical Garden.  It is very strange because in the middle of all the hustle and bustle of the city there is a nice tranquil, safe park.  I think the trees and bushes are from all around the world.  We didn't take the time to read where each tree was from but hopefully the pictures paint a good picture of what the park is like, plus Monica likes all the stray cats.
