Kula Botanical Garden — Park Review | Condé Nast Traveler

"Can you tell us a little about this place? What began in 1977 as a native plant reserve has transformed into Kula Botanical Garden, one of upcountry Maui's most beloved attractions, visited by thousands every year. Thanks to a location on the slopes of Haleakalā , the rich volcanic soil provides fertile ground for a great variety of plants, each labeled and many native to Maui. Any standout features or must-sees? There's a covered bridge that's absolutely darling—it makes for a great photo op. Was it easy to get around? Don't worry about navigating these eight acres; after all, getting lost on the walking paths is half the fun. Make your way to the picturesque gazebo if you need a break from the sun. Anything we should know ahead of time? Admission is only $10 for adults—a fair price to pay to view more than 2,000 plants." - Todd Plummer
