Rockefeller Park is home to the Cleveland Cultural Gardens, which includes more than 30 stunning gardens.

Each garden pays homage to a different culture, each of which lent something to Cleveland as it grew over the years.

Up until 1930, there were just a few gardens: the British Garden, the Hebrew Garden, the German Garden, and the Italian Garden.

Since then, dozens of gardens have been added... and some are still in development to this day.

And each has a vibe that's uniquely its own... and unique to the culture it celebrates.

Fascinating architectural elements, beautiful landscaping, and unique plants add a great deal of diversity to the landscape.

And the gardens are a frequent site of celebration, from One World Day (which brings all the gardens and cultures together for one massive celebration) to niche and unique celebrations specific to each culture.

Each garden has a story to tell, and the people that maintain the gardens ensure their respective culture lives on in Cleveland, too.

All in all, the Cleveland Cultural Gardens in Rockefeller Park are a place of beauty, and they're a landmark every Clevelander should check out.

From the heat of summer to the colors of call, the cold of winter, and the renewal of spring, each season brings a unique element to the landscape.

And even when there's not a fun cultural celebration taking place, you can feel the pride and legacy of each cultural group in every garden you explore.
