Located near 10th Avenue and Fulton Street. The museum is free on the first Wednesday of each month. Begun in 1937 with WPA funds and charitable donations, this 70-acre horticultural extravaganza entices the senses with more than 6,000 plant species. The main entrance is on Ninth Avenue at Lincoln Way. Also accessible from the Japanese Tea Garden through the Friend's Gate.
Admission is free.
An archery field lies just north of the golf course. Complete equipment packages can be rented at the nearby San Francisco Archery Shop. The field is located on Fulton Street between 45th and 46th Avenues. Highly competitive and energetic games are always going on in the panhandle, located at the eastern end of the park on Masonic, between Oak and Fell streets. Due to the long, narrow layout of the park, you may want to tackle it on wheels.
