Japanese Tea Garden’s Free Admission Hour

Monday, May 4, 2026 · 9:00 AM

Golden Gate Park’s Japanese Tea Garden opens its gates for free admission on Sunday morning, May 4th at 9 AM. It’s a rare chance to experience the garden’s beautiful stone lanterns, koi ponds, and arched bridges without paying the usual entry fee. This is an ideal time to visit if you want to beat the crowds and enjoy the tranquility of the space early in the day. Bring a camera and settle in for some quiet reflection among the maples and cherry trees.
