The Norton Simon Museum has what is known around the world as one of the most remarkable private art collections ever assembled. Over a 30-year period, industrialist Norton Simon (1907-1993) amassed an astonishing collection of European art from the Renaissance to the 20th century, and a magnificent collection of South and Southeast Asian art spanning 2,000 years. Highlights on view include masterpieces by Raphael, Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Monet, Cézanne, Degas and Picasso.
The Museum’s beautiful and serene garden evokes Monet’s Giverny and holds a spectacular collection of 20th-century sculpture, with works by Maillol, Hepworth, Rodin and Moore.

The Huntington Library Botanical Gardens
In 1903 Henry Huntington purchased the San Marino Ranch, a working ranch with citrus groves, nut and fruit orchards, alfalfa crops, a small herd of cows, and poultry. His superintendent, William Hertrich, was instrumental in developing the various plant collections that comprise the foundation of the botanical gardens. The property—originally nearly 600 acres—today covers 207 acres, of which approximately 120 are landscaped and open to visitors. More than 14,000 different varieties of plants are showcased in more than a dozen principal garden areas. Forty gardeners, a curatorial staff of seven, and more than 100 volunteers maintain the botanical collections, provide interpretive programs for visitors, and propagate plants for special sales.

Free tours of the gardens are available with general admission or membership. Tours are offered Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday between noon and 2 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday between 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. 1151 Oxford Road, San Marino, CA. For more information call: 626-405-2100
