Back to Myriad Botanical Gardens I would pass on this one! Not worth the money! There was no crystal bridge, just a rusted one in need of repair, no butterflies, green water and could hardly see the fish, waterfall was weak...nothing like ad. very disappointed! should be free, nothing special.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Apr 06 2009 something great to see the gardens are beautiful inside what looks like a giant can laying down. there are waterfalls and exotic plants from all over the world. if you walk around the outside there is a "river" full of large coy that runs underneath and around the outside. it is a little trashy and looks run down, but only on the outside. its something you definitly have to see when you visit oklahoma city.

Reviewed by: lilian from on Jun 18 2007 Awesome Central Park You wouldn't think you'd find such a well done tropical oasis in the middle of the country - yet Oklahoma City's Central Park lives up to that. The Myriad Gardens is one of downtown's most popular attractions because of its "natural, quiet feel" in the heart of a major city downtown - very similar feeling to NYC Central Park or Chicago's Lincoln Park.

Reviewed by: Regina from on Dec 06 2006 Great experience. My family loved the Gardens. It's a beautiful place with a large selection of plants and flowers and was well worth the money. The waterfall is amazing. My son especially liked the birds. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The only bad things are that there were no diaper changing areas in the bathrooms and it's not very accessible for strollers/wheelchairs.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Sep 27 2006 Beautiful and relaxing The Myriad Botanical Gardens was a pleasant surprise for us. It was near our hotel so we could walk and not worry about parking. We walked the gardens and enjoyed the plants, fountains, fish and peacefulness of these gardens free of charge. We visited the indoor exibit (cost for this) and enjoyed it very much. We enjoyed watching children feed bread to the fish and turtles in the garden ponds. It was hard to believe we were in downtown Oklahoma City in the Business/Bricktown areas because it was so peaceful, quiet and beautiful here.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Sep 02 2006 Very nice place to visit! The Botanical Gardens were very nice and pretty even though the day we went it was over 110 degrees outside so inside we were defently sweating, since it was so humid. Kids get to do a questionare. The guy who ran the place seemed strange. The plants were marvelous.
