Chinese Scholar Garden, Snug Harbor, Staten Island, NY

In my opinion this video was shot all wrong.

I worked as seasonal staff gardener at the SI Botanical Garden and for several of those seasons I was assigned to this garden.

To me, this video is just a fast and incomplete walk thru.

There is much more to see.

Some of the things she left out include close-ups of the many plants and trees; the balcony; the Bird Mosaic; the stone bridges and the KOI in the pond. The entire backyard. Shots of the stone patios, the front doorway, etc.

I love Globe Trekker. lol.

I tried going to that garden yesterday, but it was raining. and they had the fence closed.

I went to the Museum of Tibetan Art by Lighthouse Avenue instead.

I'm trying again today.

There's an indoor garden inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
