Beautiful gardens in the heart of Spokane. What a surprise in the middle of the city. It was free. Perfect way to spend a nice fall afternoon!

Stunning display of symmetrical beauty! Felt like I was transported to some fancy European estate. Worth a long leisurely stroll to take in all the pretty flowers.

Stunningly beautiful in ways words cant describe.

It is amazing how beautiful it was at Duncan Gardens. The flowers weren’t all in full bloom yet, but that really didn’t make a huge difference. Such an amazing place. Unfortunately the conservatory was closed, so I wasn’t able to get any pictures from there. Definitely disappointing.

Absolutely beautiful park. Many different plants and flowers. Fountains were still going. Rose gardens. Seasonal flowers. A must see place. Stroll and enjoy.

Beautiful variety of flowers. Many opportunities to sit in the shade. The caretakers have a passion for presentation. For those that dont know, it takes a great deal of time to trim, prune, cull out dying plants and replace, control pests, remove invasive weeds, hand water, ...The results of your passion is appreciated !!!Thank you, youve added beauty to my life.

We finally caught it in the season. Beautiful any time of the year. Can even meet awesome people here. Never hesitate to stop at this park. Added a splash park near by so we will visit again soon.

If you want to take pictures I should just go in there I mean I dont know how you rate a gorgeous Garden anything lower than five stars

Manito Parks Duncan garden is lovely in design but the hot pink, orange, red, and yellow of some floral landscaping is combined with deep purple, and sage colors elsewhere but within the same sightlines. I wish the colors of the flowers were more cohesive or seemed like they came from the same color palate. Some run through this garden, others walk, many take pictures, and some bring kids or dogs. Its nice when the fountain is turned on. The Duncan Gardens are a fun little gem in Spokane. There isnt too much parking right by this garden so parking elsewhere and walking to this spot helps.

Very relaxing. Beautiful gardens and so well maintained. So many colors, walking trails, little cafe, parking dor all, regular and handicap. Duck pond and children play ground. Tables or benches to sit. A wonderful place for families or individuals.

Flew home from Spokane after spending a week in Montana, the gardens were outstanding! Roses were near there peak. Spent about two hours walking the gardens and park. Very well maintained and it is free.

Very peaceful and beautiful to see

I am in love with the landscaping, and it is so beautiful for photos, or even just to walk through in thought on a pretty day. I went in May, so everything was just beautiful!

A peaceful respite and serene park for the enjoyment of all. It is a large, well maintained park containing some formally arranged gardens with flowers, shrubs and fountains. The park is suitable for walking, or quiet reflection in their well manicured spaces. Enjoy your time outdoors.

What an amazing place. Weve visited a lot of botanical gardens and parks and this place is one of our favorites. To top it all off, its free! It was very busy when we went but it didnt feel overly crowded. Will definitely visit this place again soon.

Beautiful and peaceful, awesome free greenhouse above the sunken garden.

We go there many times throughout the year to see the various displays of blossoms. Its gorgeous. I look forward to the orchids in full blossom by mid summer.

So beautiful, diverse gardens and my favorite is the Japanese Gardens

Beautiful location for a garden. So many wonderful colors. One can just sit and take it all in. There is also a green house to walk thru and see even more flowers.

Absolutely beautiful!

Spokane might be far from major city hubs, but it has class in its own right. Like the classic South Hill mansions, Duncan Garden creates an atmosphere of sophistication. When my wife and I stroll down the paths, I can see a black top hat on me and a frilly parasol shading her in the reflection in the fountain pool.

A great place through all the seasons.

One of our favorite places to come for a couple hours and walk through all the pristine gardens. My eye is always drawn to the color selected for each area. Its a gift of love that the caretakers give with keeping this garden so beautiful. If I have any suggestions, it would be to give some more attention to their Butterfly Garden. Each time we come, I have an expectation that this part of the garden would be more spectacular then it is. Its pretty bland and Ive yet to see a butterfly over the 30 years Ive lived in this area.

We just had my daughters senior pictures taken today. The park was gorgeous!

A pretty stroll to break up the monotony. Well maintained, and usually not very crowded.

This place is always so beautiful. The variety of plants and flowers is amazing!

This place is beautiful! Love coming here. Great place to take pictures for any occasion.

A beautiful park. So calm and relaxing and well taken care of

Absolutely amazing garden.When this place is in bloom, it might the the prettiest thing in Spokane. Often times, youll find wedding/senior/engagement photos being taken at the central fountain.

It was so beautiful today.

Its one of my favorite places in the world

One of the most beautiful and well maintained parks in the city

One of my wifes and I favorite parks to go

Beautiful place great backgrounds for picture taking!

The gardners at manito have done it again it is pretty and addicting to smell all the roses and just look at all the colors

Absolutely beautiful very nice relaxing

This place was unexpectedly beautiful. So many flora and so vibrant with color.

Great place to visit, right now nothing is in bloom but still beautiful.

This has been one of my favorite go to places since I was a little girl! I now take my children! If I ever get married I will do it here and if you have never been put it on your list , you won’t be disappointed!!

Beautiful place to visit. It was refreshing.

Duncan gardens a great Sunday afternoon excursion.

Very serene. Well groomed.

Great place to visit or bring friends from out of town.

Colorful and peaceful place to visit .

Always worth the short drive

Such a beautiful Spokane icon!

Beautiful!

Peaceful and relaxing.

Nice day beautiful place for a walk.

This is the most awesome part of Manito park. During the first few weeks of December they decorate the green house plants with lights. It gets busy and crowded. You need patience for this event.

I plan to this this place more often. It was a peaceful day and the smoke was not as pronounced as it was yesterday.

Beautiful when in full bloom!

Serene gardens, well taken care of. So beautiful

A beautiful park.

Rad gardens, hype gazebo, good prom pic spot

Very fun park to walk around. Lots of flowers, water fountain, private benches surrounded by trees, perfect for private enjoyment.Live symphonic music sometimes, as conservatory located next to oark

Love these archways!

A beautiful place to walk.

Attended for a wedding. The gardens are beautiful!

Great year for the garden.

Wonderful gardens in a wonderful park.

Beautiful and perfect time of year!

Lovely even off season

First you must understand I love flowers and this is the place for them. Classic flower beds, period fountain and garden buildings and benches. A very restoring walk.

All the gorgeous colors youll find here in the summer are amazing!! I love this whole park so much.

Absolutely lovely

So Im here fairly often. I play Pokemon Go, Manito is easily the best place in Spokane for this, the Park is beautiful, spawns are plenty, and there are many gyms. Normally this place wouldve gotten five stars, but it was permeated by a funky smell. If youve ever had a compost pile that youve turn too early; before the greens broke down; youll definitely understand the smell.

Gorgeous! Beautiful symmetry and lovely fountains. A great place for photos!

Everything you could want is on the South Hill. Beautiful old homes, roads made of bricks, some even still have the street car tracks. Every type of architecture youre looking for with numerous Craftsman bungalows and mid-century homes. Intriguing to walk or drive, you can travel from park to park or visit high drive trails. You may encounter a herds of turkeys walking the streets or play chicken with a squirrel. Its a delightful section of Spokane

We parked just north of here at the public park and enjoyed a great walk around this area. A ton of photo opportunities and eye candy. Definitely recommend the short walk to see this!

Perfect place for a stroll

What a wonderful place to get away from meetings and 10 hour work days. Reminds me of the soothing feeling you get looking at the ocean. Mesmerizing.

Always well designed flower garden

If you have any free time you will want to go to Manito Park on the South Hill off Grand Blvd. The park has beautiful grounds, Japanese Gardens, Duncan Gardens (beautiful rose and flower gardens) a large wonderful pond and great areas for walking, picnics, family gatherings, etc. In the winter there is a sledding hill or two. The homes around the park are old and beautiful as well - many are of the Arts and Crafts style and date back to the 1920s and 30s (many newer ones too). Give yourself several hours to wander through the park - walk, bike or drive.

Love this place

An absolutely beautiful venue for all things outdoors! But the cutest thing here by far is having your own wedding

We dont have a lot of gardens like this in the USA. I think this must have been designed by some landscaper from the courtyards of France or maybe England, because it sure dont look like I pictured the state of Washington to look! Kidding aside, the gardens are really stupendous. The June blooms were so incredible.

Beautiful garden - so nice to have something like this in Spokane that is absolutely free for anyone to enjoy!

Visited yesterday, too early for the flowers. The park grounds are beautiful. Another month or two, the place will be fantastic!FREE to visit! Wonderful walking paths also good for ADA scooters & wheelchairs.

Beautiful! Even in winter!

Love this place. This is where I got engaged.

Nice formal style garden. All the beds had just been replanted, so nothing was established or blooming. Fountain was not turned on. I suspect in about a month it will be a better experience.

Just beautiful

Great landscaping

July through late Fall: Beautiful arrangement of annuals that grow well in the Spokane area, nice benches in the shade at one end. We had our wedding at Duncan gardens a few decades ago, so make it a point to stop by the center fountain at least once every summer for a quick kiss. Sometimes we have to come back another day if there is already a wedding going on there!

So beautiful

Took engagement pictures here, very beautiful place.

Its beautiful!

Its even kinda pretty with just snow.

Beautiful plants.

Great selection and layout. A nice relaxing walk that isolates you in a world of color.

Beautiful park. Great place to take pictures anytime of year. Plenty of lot and neighborhood street parking. Park is clean and free of needles and junkies unlike many of Spokanes other city parks.

This is a spectacular park to visit, solo much to see. We packed a lunch and are while we were there. The best part is, its totally free!

Beautiful locale where we met Patience and his other 3 family members who are recent immigrants from The Congo.

Very pretty and tons of interesting plants to check out. The layout is tight but so worth the time to check it out.

A gem of an English Garden. Every year the Friends of Manito take on planting the entire garden, which blooms in summer. They pick a different color theme so its different every time.

Dope garden. Highly recommend it

Even though thats where I got married that one time, I still love that place!

The garden was beautiful. There was a crazy lady there yelling at me that I cant take photos of my daughter but hey you can run into crazies anywhere

One of Spokanes finest treasures. This park seems to transport you to an entirely different place and time. I especially enjoy the summer Mozart concerts with Verne Windham.
