 6BC Botanical Garden

WHY IT'S WONDERFUL:  Named after its location on 6th Street with "B" standing for botanical and "C" for community, this garden is a treasure of the Lower East Side. There are hundreds of plants within this lush greenery, ranging from lilies of the valley to winter aconites. The garden features an overlooking ivy-draped building, a wooden pergola, brick-paved walkway, koi pond, and an enchanting treehouse open to visitors. It hosts events such as weddings, photo shoots, and concerts, blossoming through the care of dedicated volunteers. Check out their website for live jazz events or just swing by for a moment of peace.
