Boasting a Japanese hill-and-pond garden, a native flora garden, and an herb garden to boot, it is easy to spend hours meandering through the hidden paths and secret gardens of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. And altough it is beautiful year-round, the most hypnotic time to visit is during Cherry Blossom season in the spring.

Summer warm up at PS1, every Saturday during the summer months in an open outdoor space, drinks and food, relaxed easy vibe, and art that doesn't require in depth reflection, just a nice way to spend your Saturday. Awesome bookstore, with books ranging from music, art, to philosophy. Great drink selection and restaurant, on the pricey side.

They also screen movies & TV shows, and hold Q&As with famous filmmakers. And, best of all, the museum is home to the permanent exhibition for Jim Henson's The Muppets.
