Thomas E. Ricks Gardens

Just to make everyone aware this is located on the BYU-I campus so unless you are a student with a parking pass you can park in the designated areas closest however if not then you will need park in visitors parking and walk to the Gardens. This is a perfect place to bring kids for a stroll, be with family and friends for any occasion. It's very peaceful, serene and has very convenient places to either study or meditate. Perfect little place to get away without having to leave campus if you're a student.

If you're looking for a pleasant stroll, a place to sit or just somewhere to pass the time for half an hour then the Thomas E. Ricks Gardens might be the place for you. Combining multiple styles and themes from across the world it boasts a variety of well maintained and interesting spaces. A large amount of the garden is wheelchair accessible as well. Worth multiple visits in different seasons.

Large open area of green space. Has tables and benches for taking time to get away from the computer or classroom and enjoy the outdoors. Tons of pathways, not necessarily great paths to shortcut from the Ricks the Benson.

Beautiful and relaxing. Took the kids up there in the afternoon after 4pm so there wasn't a million college students going to class or using the garden. (After 4 you can park anywhere without a required permit.) The water features and flowers are so pretty and the energy there is peaceful. Great spot to meditate abd wind down.

We came here to take pictures. It was great! There are often several other people there, also taking photos, but the gardens are very big, room for everyone. They are even expanding and adding more landscaping.
