Fun Facts

The Bankers Hill entrance leads you through the historic Cabrillo Bridge, a 1,500-foot-long marvel built for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition.

The gardens thrive thanks to San Diego's Mediterranean climate, which provides the perfect conditions for a diverse range of plants to flourish year-round.

The renowned architect Bertram Goodhue, known for his work on the Panama-California Exposition, helped shape the park's iconic Spanish Colonial Revival style.

The Marston House Museum and Gardens, a lesser-known treasure, offers a glimpse into early 20th-century architecture and design.

Rumor has it that there are hidden tunnels beneath the park, originally used for maintenance and utilities during the 1915 Exposition.
