    This is a nice park that's dog friendly and also offers free 2-hr parking just across the street or from the corners of the park. It offers some greenery, peace and quiet in an otherwise bustling busy city area. It's interesting in the sense that the park is divided into three chunks and requires risking your life to hop from one end to another. The cars from Santa Monica Blvd will turn right onto the street at high speeds and many coming from the residential streets as well. There were numerous debris and what appears to be people with serious psychiatric problems. One of them had blindfolds on and swayed back and forth under the tree. Another person just spoke loudly to himself by the Beverly Hills sign. Aside from the bonus of finding free parking and a dash of greens for my dogs to relieve themselves, I wouldn't go out of my way to go visit.

    Stopped by to see the Great Elephant Migration, on display 1 July - 1 Aug 2025 Great display of Elephants made from invasive plants in the Elephant habitats, small gift stand in the parking lot of the Annenberg Center. Great way to spend an hour, also a nice park just to visit after the elephants move on.

    The neighborhood is super peaceful, clean, and nice to walk/ hike around. Very residential

    Only came back to Los Angeles last week to see the Great Elephant Migration, and it was well worth the trip! Loved the Ringo Starr piece we saw in 2022, but loved it even more w/an ellie next to it, aptly named Ringo!! Beautiful park, maintained so well, the old trees are gorgeous and picturesque, couldn't ask for a nicer walk down SM Blvd. Waited almost a year for the Migration to arrive, was sooo happy to be able to see it in person and support their WONDERFUL cause! Wish it was on display longer than 1 month.

    Pond

    This is a lovely park for any type of event. If in the park make sure to look at all the old trees here. There is a fig tree that is over 100 years old. The pond is scenic and iconic for photography. Gather your loved ones for a selfie. Great for picnics or sitting and contemplating. Free street parking in residential areas.

    We have been visiting LOS ANGELES, HOLLYWOOD, and BEVERLY HILLS for years, coming up from SAN DIEGO!!! However, we have never stopped at BEVERLY GARDENS PARK, before. We were racing on Mulholland Drive, to see stars' houses. First up, Jennifer Lopez. After finding what we thought was her house and being followed by, who we thought was Jennifer Lopez herself, in her black Rolls Royce SUV, we decided to head to RODEO DRIVE. It was sort of cool, and 2 parks in 1!!! There was the sign in one, and the peace sign and statue in the other. AS FAR AS PARKING GOES, you park on the back street, or streets. We then headed to RODEO DRIVE!!!

    When you are tired of shopping till you drop in Beverly Hills, then this is a good place to walk through or take in some fresh air at this lovely little park nested between residential and commercial area. Not super big but just the right size to take you away from the commercial world! There's some unique cacti in this garden! What a pleasant little park to find!

    It's a peaceful park that has beautifully laid out paths, big old trees, has a 'Beverly Hiils' sign in front of a small pond that has colorful fishes & few lotuses. Street parking is available near the park. It's one of the most Instagrammable places in LA.

    Beverly Gardens Park is a must-see in Beverly Hills. It is located on Santa Monica Blvd between Wilshire to Doheny. Here you will find the famous lily pond and Beverly Hills sign . There are also rose and cactus gardens and a beautiful old tree along and a glorious fountain. It's a great place for pictures. Many permanent art sculptures are on display here. Twice a year, on a weekend, you can catch the Beverly Hills Art Show (May and October). The park spans for 1.9 miles and has a dirt trail that is a nice place to take a walk or jog in nature. It is a well-maintained park and just steps away from shops and restaurants.

    Beautifully kept sidewalks, fountains and gardens. Exceptional succulent garden. Plus, it's free. Was able to enjoy the Elephant Migration Installation.

    I drove around Beverly Hills and all houses were beautiful. It is nice area. Grand and huge mansion, there is a part that old money and new money lives. The park is at the end of our drive through to the area. Plam tree are along the way like many of movies that use the location or studio to film their movie. If you are rich, you won't have any problem to live in this area.

    Not many people taking pictures infront of the sign, giant trees everywhere. Nice scenery to see. They should add bathrooms since there are none that I found.

    Swimming pools, movie stars! Yeah, it may be a myth and all, but anywhere in Beverly Hills can be a thrilling experience - especially for a Midwesterner like me. Of course, a lot of residential parts are restricted but there's always Rodeo Drive and this park! Parking is behind the park and it's $1.50 an hour (be sure to bring quarters!). That gives you time to explore the area a bit as I walked to Rodeo Drive and got a selfie with the sign. For whatever reason, the park is noted for its lily pond but the water kinda looked nasty. They make it clear that no one is allowed to jump in. But this is a tourist magnet and not surprisingly, one of the most Instagrammable places. Don't let the busy Santa Monica Boulevard/Route 66 intimidate you. Worth stopping at if you're a selfie or pop culture geek.

During the summer, free concerts are held here on Thursdays, which makes the place even more special. The hotel architecture nearby is stunning, and this garden is also a great spot for photoshoots. Overall, it's a perfect place to relax, enjoy the surroundings, and spend some quiet time in the heart of Beverly Hills.

This area is known to host evening events, so it can get a bit chaotic but also transforms into a completely different vibe when it does! There are plenty of magical photo moments here which is a draw for Instagram models and tourists alike. Parking is also super easy in the 2 hour free lot attached.

This makes it frustrating when it's crowded, and there are designated lanes for medium-fast swimmers, but they're taken up by slow/beginner swimmers. Had to wait around for 10 minutes until there was space. Needs to be a better of way of controlling/managing the lanes so that different swim levels can swim without the pool being completely overrun by slow swimmers, making it harder for other levels to enjoy the pool space.

The drive to Franklin Canyon is already beautiful, very green and peaceful. Once you get there, it feels quiet and relaxing, almost like you're not in LA anymore. There are a lot of trails depending on what kind of walk you want, plus many picnic tables if you want to bring food and spend a few hours there. The main lake is beautiful, but my favorite part is the smaller pond with turtles, ducks, and huge koi fish. The animals are very used to people and come pretty close, which makes it really fun to watch. If you walk higher up near the fire station, the views are amazing. There's also an amphitheater and a small museum area that I still want to visit next time Everything feels clean and well maintained, including the restrooms, and they even have water for dogs if you come with your pet.
