This arboretum has more than 14,000 different kinds of flora & fauna. You can see bonsai, lilacs, roses, tulips, maple trees, bamboo trees, cork trees, etc. It`s an amazing & serene place. Very calming.
The arboretum is pretty extensive & there are some areas between the trees where you can see an excellent view of Boston!
There is also a research center if you want more info on what you see.
Located at 125 Arborway, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130-3500.
Directions: Take the T (Orange Line) to Forest Hills Station. The Arboretum's Forest Hills gate is one block NW of the station along the Arborway.

deecat Tue Aug 15, 2006 07:37 UTC What a great "insider's view" of Boston! Restaurant tips are marvelous and so enticing.	gilabrand Mon Jul 3, 2006 08:42 UTC Never knew about the alphabetized streets!
garridogal Thu Mar 9, 2006 19:16 UTC Your restaurant tips are making me hungry and also realize that it's been ages since I went to Pho. Gotta go!	KarenandCory Sat Sep 10, 2005 18:54 UTC Thanks for all the Chinatown restaurant tips, will have to go. Only eaten in Chinatown twice, I most definately am missing out.
